And so on thru the list of PNMs. And that is done till a group closes out and then they go with the PNMs second choice, and it starts over for them. The women left once all t he groups close out are then eligible for quota additions as long as they maximized their options. Then they are added as above. It's sooooooo much faster by computer! Take my word as one who did it by hand for many years!
This makes sense, and is familiar with what I have previously read on GC.

However, am I dreaming that there are some schools who do the regular matching, as above, but then when they get to the QAs they match those to the group on their MRABA that has the lowest chapter total? Obviously, the thought process would be to try to equalize chapter sizes, so that the big don't just continue to get bigger. The PNM may then get her 1st, 2nd, or yes, even 3rd choice.

It just seems that the two systems have been debated on GC in the past, but maybe my memory is fuzzy.

Yes, they are supposed to QA to the chapter with the smallest total chapter size.
