Wow- had no clue what happens behind the scenes.
For all you PNMs that pledged a house you should be very proud.
What I found out without divulging secrets.....
No matter how much you liked a certain house and certain girls you may not have any chance you get in. Things are predetermined-not preselected, but predetermined.
Legacies are NOT guaranteed. Yes it sucks- all those recommendations etc. in the short run it will allow you to get to round 1 but that's that. ( most houses )
No matter what every house says if you are from Texas you have a head start. Simply put your chance of being known or knowing people in the house is far greater than those girls out of state.
Within the houses there are cliques from certain towns that will push for girls from their own town.
Most importantly, the girl that took you through rush, the one you clicked with, loved, and made you want to join her house and you DIDN'T get in- she is devastated, just like you! She wanted you, others wanted you- the numbers didn't add up. Enjoy your new house. Wear your letters proudly. Don't worry about "rankings". They change every year.

Also, please know that if you didn't receive a bid from us, it's not because we didn't like you. We love everyone we invite to preference and want to give a big to every single person who attended our preference. You just weren't high enough on the list to get a bid before we reached quota, but please know you were somewhere on our bid list. Everyone who attends preference is.

We also release girls we like if they have a heavy TAMU legacy. We just don't take chance even though we may love the girl.

What a nice thing to point out, about the girl you clicked with and that she too is sad. Just generally such a nice and supportive post on a sight where that is unusual. Good for you op and excellent points.

Ok, so whoever posted this copied me from the TCU site. That's cool, but it was not directed towards Texas A&M. But, if it applies....
