As far as why the PNMs over quota are not distributed more evenly, this explanation involves RFM, how many pref parties a PNM attends, and quota additions. Bama had over 218 quota additions last year (64 the previous year) -- someone asked about this huge increase in quota additions earlier in the thread.

I wouldn't attempt the explanation about QAs in a huge recruitment like this -- or even a guess about the increase in quota additions last year -- better left to one of the RFM experts here.

No problem with QA; I understand that, surprisingly well for someone whose greek system essentially didn't know what quota meant. I come from a pre-RFM system where a woman could get as many bids as there were chapters.

I'm not sure I understand how "quota range" can be so far off, but ...

I guess I'll just keep learning, and eventually it will fit.

QR can be very wide because they continually run the numbers until the most women match. So it is very fluid.
