Theoretically, but the reality at super competitive schools is a little different. Although the first round cuts for "SR" chapters are brutal, the second round is usually much worse. Without going into MS details, there may be reasons many pnms have to be invited to that second round even though you know you're going to cut them next. Those are the kinds of pnms who can be left with few options after the second and third rounds, because those are where a lot of the "middle" chapters really have to start making painful cuts.
