"I think it is hard to make a simple model of the bid matching process with all the unknown pieces. My problem with the "artificially" low quotas is the quota additions. At all the schools I've been involved with (granted, only three) the QAs are based on PNM preference, not helping the smaller chapters."
The PNM should be matched to the smallest chapter on their bid card. So if they can put 2 choices down and they don't match to either by quota, then they are a QA to the smallest of the two...which may be their first choice...or may be their second. It doesn't matter. All that matters is that as a QA you go to the smallest chapter.
