Your understanding from whom? A lot of times that's what members will tell girls when they are embarrassed that their friend didn't get a bid to their chapter for another more personal reason. Trying to find out why you didn't get a bid from a house, especially when you know many members, is VERY uncomfortable for those members. You will never know why houses dropped you and you need to increase your odds now by doing everything in your power because there probably won't be that many spaces available and it will be even more competitive than formal was.
Since you say you suicided, then you obviously made it to preference round with at least two chapters left. That doesn't sound like what happens to a grade risk. I think you will need to have the openest of minds and not think that a little bump in your GPA is going to make you a hot PNM.
