There should be something out there. I thought most people were to be using them this year. I'm assuming you are talking about FSR.
Anyway, I'm a chapter advisor and they were SO helpful - it's something that the advisors discussed after recruitment. Groups that used to carry far too many women through recruitment had to cut them early on and other chapters (not just the smallest chapter) had a chance for those women. While I'm sure that was stressful for them (we had to cut more women than we normally do) it also offered the PNM's a chance to see who was serious about them. Our parties were also more full.
Once we got to pref, they ran bid matching a couple of times to see which quota would place the most women with their choices. Quota was about the same as it had been in years past and MANY groups made quota as opposed to 3-4 out of 11 and only two chapters had to snap bid to quota and they weren't very far off, 2-3 people. Many of the other groups had quota additions as well.
I know it sounds a little goofy but I think it created more fairness between the other groups while providing women with a better idea of who is definitely considering them. Basically, I love it and wish we would have started earlier.
Just my opinion.
