what is realistic to expect after 22 round?

by: Steph   

Obviously there is a range, but it is possible to get 16 houses back? How often does this happen? How far down the list of the 22 rankings do people typically have to go down to get 16 houses. Just trying to manage my expectations.

When I went through I got 16 back, however; all of my bottoms were in the sixteen. So just be ready to expect getting all your bottoms back and don’t let it upset you.

Unless you put all top houses in your bottom 6 expect to get all 6 back (or however many you made their gpa req) and don’t take it personally when you do get cut from houses especially if there are houses you don’t meet their requirement bc whether they love or hate you they’d have to drop you even if you have an appeal. I know plenty of people who got as little as 6-7 houses back for 16 party and of course they were upset at the time but they now love their house because after all it only takes one. If you’re looking for an average number I’d say 10-12 is pretty average

The average back is somewhere between 6-9 houses. Some will have more, some will have less. Sure, people will and due get full slates all the way through but that is not the normal for the majority of the girls going through.

Even if you get a full slate for round 2 that doesn't mean you won't get heavily cut for round 3.

If you get cut heavily after this round, keep your head up and continue with what you have. Remember, as you go through you are meeting a very small fraction of the chapters. Each chapter is a mix of people and personalities and you will find your group of friends within the house no matter what house it is.

Last year, the number for my friends from my floor ranged from 3 to 16. Those that did have 16 did not have their top 16. There were absolutely people that were crying and very upset. Please don't let that happen to you. It is discouraging and you will wonder why houses didn't like you enough to invite you back. Know this, it is not personal. The most popular houses (who would get 99% returns) have to cut like 80% of women. Houses that didn't get as high returns last year are allowed to invite more back. This is designed so that the more popular houses don't string pnms along until the end. It is best if you aren't going to get a bid to ABC house that you know that now and can focus on the houses that you have a real possibility of a bid from. It gives you time to get to know them better as the length of the parties get longer and more real interactions can take place. Try and stay positive! When you get your invites back, don't focus on those that got away. Instead focus on the ones that see something in you that they really admire and like!!
