question about bid matching

i'm rushing this fall!

quick question about bid matching:
at my school, pnms pref 2 houses. let's say you rank ABC as your first choice and XYZ as your second. ABC's first bidlist is 10 girls long and you are number 11, and you are number 1 on XYZ's first bidlist. so the computer goes through once and recognizes that you are not on your first choice's (ABC's) first bidlist.

my question is, is XYZ immediately notified that you are a match for them? if at least one girl on ABC's first bidlist matches with her first choice that is another house, can you get moved up on ABC's bidlist and be extended a bid from ABC?

Thanks!!

a PNM is never matched to her second choice until her first choice reaches quota. So, yes .. if/when one of the PNMs on ABC's first bidlist is matched to another sorority (GHI) then her name drops off ABC's first bidlist and the next name in line on the second bid list is moved to the first bid list.

I've written 2 recs so far this year, 1 for Ole Miss and 1 for Auburn! I cannot wait to find out where my Auburn PNM goes because I helped her to get 5 of her recs for other houses there! It's been slow for me this year too! I expect at least 5 more for Ole Miss.

That's why hand matching is so much fun - who's going to be the first to yell, "Closed!"

Jill, you didn't forget my little's daughter, did you? She is second term, though.

Done with daughters, but we'll have our first SEC rush in the family when our son goes to Ole Miss. Most of his girl friends from high school are going to Georgia Southern and GCSU, with only one going to UGa.
