I'm living proof of that and make no effort to hide the fact that ZTA was my 3rd choice.

ZTA was more like me already and welcomed me as warmly as if I had listed them as #1. I was on their #1 list - seems they knew what was best for me from the start!

An intential single preference ('suicide') is a risky tactic. Please check the thread "can you outsmart rush" for my thoughts on that matter.
I am not a member of an NPC sorority but one of our sisters used to be... anyway, she said that you had to match bids exactly to be taken because its done with a computer... so if you put ZTA as 3rd and they put you as 1st list, at my school you would not have gotten in...
this is an example:
RUSHEE 123's choices
1st ZTA
2nd TriSig
3rd ADPi

ZTA's 1st list:
did not include RUSHEE 123

Tri Sig's 1st list:
included RUSHEE 123

ADPi's 3rd list:
matched RUSHEE 123's 3rd choice so she would go to ADPi

does this work like that at all schools?
my sorority has a non-selective policy, this means that girls come to rush and if they like us, they join, if not, they dont... it puts the pressure on us and puts US under the microscope instead of the other way around...
