The colloquial term is "suicide" as a verb. Jane suicided. Not Jane committed suicide.

For example if #1, #2, #3 all give you a bid, you will only receive the bid from #1, and you won’t know if #2 or #3 has given you a bid or not even if they do.)
In formal recruitment, PNMs are only matched to one chapter. It is possible to match to a different chapter depending on how you rank them, if you are high on all 3 lists. It is also possible to match with your first choice and be lower on their list than you are on your 2nd or 3rd choice. However, if a chapter invites you to pref, they are willing to give you a bid. You are on their bid list, somewhere.

I really enjoyed your decriptions of pref. I think you ranked them correctly, based on your accounts. It's also good that you'd be happy in either. Also, I'd just like to point out that it's pretty rare (or at least we don't have many PNMs say this on GC) for a PNM to not have a full schedule but to have been asked back to chapters she wanted most. Kudos to you for your self-awareness.

I laughed really hard at this and shouldn't have.
