A long time ago I remember some bid day alum chatter about who made quota and who didn't, but that was long before RFM, and long before recruitments of this size.
Almost every chapter at Bama makes primary quota every year, and even if one didn't, it would probably wind up with a NM equivalent to quota plus some.
At this point with such enormous recruitments, the numbers don't really tell us anything -- larger numbers are not indicative of more successful recruitments than smaller numbers, for instance. All the numbers tell us is that EVERY pledge class is huge, and with a 93% placement rate, all chapters' cups runneth over!

That all makes perfect sense, the NM classes for each sorority are indeed ALL huge and when the sizes vary at most from just twenty something over a hundred to sixty something over a hundred with often very little difference (maybe a hair split) between so many sororities, why would many bother with the exact numbers for so many? In short, as you put it, all (sixteen) chapters' cups runneth over! It was really just a personal curiosity point of reference question I guess.
