Some info for you re: cuts:

I won't get into all the technical info that goes into release figures, but with the use of RFM, statistically the heaviest cuts ARE made in earlier rounds (as chapters have a specific percentage/number of PNMs that they must release based on a formula that takes into account their past recruitment returns, size, and a few other factors.) This also leads to fewer "cut right before Pref" moments as the chapters have released more PNMs earlier on.

Just wanted to point that out so you can prepare yourselves for the possibility of some cuts early on. The average PNM is cut rather heavy early on, but less so as recruitment progresses.

I do not think I stated that very well- I meant the group I was mentioning early may have to release less people than others in the beginning. Cuts are not a concern, I mean no one likes to get cut- but it is just a given in the process--not everyone will like you, want you, have room for you. Thanks again for your input.
