And another piece that I'm assuming is not considered is who is their primary competition. If ABC gets 95% return rates and DEF gets 95% return rates and they are head to head for preference, and they both are only inviting 2X quota (and quota is estimated low, which has been mentioned here), there is a strong possibility of a quota miss, especially if there is a 3rd chapter involved that has 85% return rates and gets to invite maybe 2 1/2X quota.
That's why I think they should be a little looser with the invitations to preference. HOWEVER, that will increase the chances of a rushee getting her 3rd choice, which we all know can be problematic. So I don't see any magic bullet. I think increasing the number of chapters should help alleviate some of this, but I can't quantify how. It just seems like spreading the wealth would diminish the intensity for 1 or 2 chapters.
