Are you a legacy?

No worries.

Say quota is 10. Each chapter creates two lists from the women who preffed them. The first list has ten names on it in alphabetical order. These are the chapter's top ten choices, and because they're on the first list, there's no ranking to them. The second list isn't alphabetical, but numerical, ranked in the order that the chapter would like to have them if they don't get their top ten.

Say Amy and Jess were on ABC's first list. Amy put ABC first on her pref card, so she gets an ABC bid. However, Jess ranked DEF first, and DEF had Jess on its first list. Jess gets a DEF bid. ABC then crosses Jess's name off of their first list 'cuz she's already matched. They still have nine more spots to fill but only eight names left on their first list, so they move Mary, who was #1 on their second list, up to their first list. Get it? And if Mary has ranked ABC first, then she gets to be an ABC. On the first list, it doesn't matter what order the names are in, because if a girl wants to be an ABC and she's on their first list, then she gets to be an ABC.

Now if ABC fills quota before they get to Sally's name on their list, then the people/computer doing the matching looks at Sally's second choice and matches her there.

This is really confusing, I know, but your Rho Gammas will explain it to you again.
