Do you all have guaranteed placement for all PNMs who maximize options? Is there a big discrepancy in that some chapters pref girls who were online invited to pref that chapter, meaning that if they list that one, they've "maximized" and must be placed there?

It's my cousin's university. Every girl who maximizes their options gets a bid including single parties, and they started that last year. However, the group with the most apparently only had five single party girls (knowing them, not surprising), and one was a legacy anyways. Before that at baylor, I knew a lot of girls who didn't get matched from our high school.
They way she described quota additions was that they placed women like normal, and then every girl who was left over was then given their first choice, which generally gives the stronger chapters the most girls.
Because of the new release figures, it seems like some groups did invite nearly 100% every day. The stronger groups are still getting stronger actually, but it's allowed most of the groups that had problems in the past to become strong in recruitment. Seven of the nine were within 15 members of each other before pledging, and now eight of the nine are within 25 of each other. Most groups are well over total even before recruitment.
One sorority has always struggled and no longer participates in formal recruitment.
The ones that posted those big numbers are strongest at that school, and my cousin said their minus lists are huge as well, with one exception. The chapter that handed out 66 bids ended up with 60 girls, which is still over quota and an amazing number for them, because they were not at total beforehand.
The thing they don't do there that is at my campus is the idea of decline with regret, so maybe that might help even things out. (?) i have no idea why it was so many.
