No, at ORD it's the elite security line. Upon entry they check the boarding pass and then send you down one way or the other.
At the ORD UA T1 security a couple weeks ago, the precheck pre-scanner was down, so everyone had to go down the elite line. Made for a long wait. Also silly was that I got my 3 beeps with the "regular" ID checker and had to then get my BP/ID rechecked by the ID checker manning the PreCheck swinging gate.
Very few people were getting the 3 beeps that day.
Also also, I've entered my GE info in my AA profile, but no joy yet. Hopefully next time!
