It all works out!

LOL...if it was me, I would do almost the exact opposite!
She has been asked back to 16, likes most all of them except maybe 3 that she knows in her heart she would pass on. She needs to narrow it down to 9.
Ok....I'd start by putting the 3 chapters I know I'm not fitting in with at the bottom. Then, I'd go back to the other 13 and work from the top down. I'd look for my obvious favorites. Come on....there *has* to be some out of 13 that are more favorite than others. All 13 can't be exactly equal. So, let's pretend that there are 5 chapters that are just really winning my heart and my gut is saying that these are my favorites. Those 5 go straight to the top and I only need to work out 4 others to round out my top 9. Of course, it's those "8 in the middle" that will trip her up. Which 4 should get to go with the top 9 group and which 4 should be put below the line? THAT's where young ladies get stuck. I like FSUZeta's suggestion to consider the chapter personality and try to whittle it down from there.
At the end of the day, the chances of her getting her exact top 9 back are low. So, the good news is that some of the ones she liked, but didn't quite make it to the top 9 she submitted, will probably reappear on her list. I hope this makes sense. LOL.....I don't envy these PNMs (or their moms!)
