RFM Question

[Titchou]

If she makes it to third round with the "highly selective groups" she's still going to be on the other groups lists. She shouldn't have to worry.

I may not understand how much the release requirements drop off.

You're basically saying that say at a campus where one goes to six groups for third and three for prefs that virtually no one would make the cut to be invited to the most selective chapter for third round but also be too low to be invited to prefs by the sixth?

I was imagining there could be scenarios for a girl ranked around 200 by multiple groups. She might easily make it to third but not make it to prefs at all.

That's exactly what I was wondering. I thought if RFM was working the way it's supposed to, by the time you get to pref, the most popular chapters are down to as bare bones in terms of numbers of PNMs as it's possible to be.

I thought so too which made it plausible that if you somehow made it to the top six for third round, you might have to worry if you weren't in the top 100 that you'd get dropped.

It sort of goes along with the hard cuts early help you more than hard cuts late thinking, IMO. Not only are you more realist about chapters, but you're going back to the chapters who will be able to invite back the highest number of girls and will go further down their bid list to make quota.
