The purpose of RFM is to keep invitations in line with the precentage of acceptances a chapter gets, on the average, by lowering the number that successful chapters can issue and allowing the underperforming chapters to issue more. This applies to every round of recruitment and so forces the bigger, better chapters to release women earlier rather than string them along till they dump them before pref. Also, it allows the system to place ALL women who "maximize their options" (that is, accept all invitations that they are able within their schedule to accept). And there are no restrictions on where those women can be placed except that that be on the sorority's list. The reality is that the chapters are thereby restricted as they are not going to put additional women on their bid list who were not invited to pref (these extra women are known as being on a "flex list"). And the women will not put a chapter they haven't preffed on their list. So they've already excluded each other thru the course of the week.
Hope that makes sense!
