But some of us are amateur recruitment statisticians. It's sad but true, and I'll admit without apology that I find it interesting.

While we can't give any one person any probability for a specific girl, based on what some campuses release on the bid lists and what one can do sorting in Excel, you can see how things shook out this year at least.

ETA: and yes, we probably could get all uppity and tell people to look it up themselves but by the time people from the next year want to know the data is sometimes hard to find.

Actually most of the responses on this thread gave really good advice for the out of state (or out of region) pnm. And I guess that was what I was really looking for. If the situation appeared hopeless or rarely successful for someone out of region, that information also is helpful. The search for realistic expectations can sometimes be helped by the numbers (which is why I asked) but the experience of the GC chat members appears to be the most helpful. I don't think I asked anyone how they thought a particular specific individual would do with a particular specific sorority. I realize no one on or off GC could tell that and I apologize if someone interpreted my question as asking this.

(But it does appear there are some very capable statisticians, amatuer or otherwise.)

Apart from that, I have to say that I find the recruitment stories and the following of particular recruitments at the various schools addicting. Not really sure why....
