Two Prefs is Better

Poster Message:
No, no, no! The three pref system has mountains of evidence against it. #2 comment has it on the money and @Active's experience is by far the one that most always statistically happens. First of all, there was a very LOW percentage of PNM's who ended up getting their 3rd choice house. Of those PNM's, there was a very HIGH percentage of not accepting those bids or not putting the 3rd choice on the card. So, the statistics point heavily to that 3rd choice not really being viable. Under two prefs, a PNM can go ahead and possibly get the third one off her card and not worry about landing there, OR be able to understand her real options going into pref when she is released from a house that would carry her to pref but have her so low on their bid list that she wouldn't have gotten that bid anyway, ie better to know before pref than get hopes up for bid day. Two prefs is going to be way better for PNM's.
