  1. We present exact results in softly broken supersymmetric SU(NC) chiral gauge theories with charged fermions in one antisymmetric, NF fundamental, and NC+NF−4 antifundamental representations. We achieve this by considering the supersymmetric version of these theories and utilizing anomaly mediated supersymmetry breaking at a scale m≪Λ to generate a vacuum. The connection to nonsupersymmetric theories is then conjectured in the limit m→∞ . For odd NC , we determine the massless fermions and unbroken global symmetries in the infrared. For even NC , we find global symmetries are nonanomalous and no massless fermions. In all cases, the symmetry breaking patterns differ from what the tumbling hypothesis would suggest.
