is pike or pikapp better and in what regards?

technically Pike but different people have different preferences...ultimately pikapp guys are a little more attractive but pike as a frat has great parties and mixers and are a lot of fun (pikapp guys are a lot more shy) so I would say most people would put Pike above Pikapp

Pikapp is the new Snu

Pike is more attractive and more social. Pi Kapp guys are nicer and their upperclassmen are a bit more attractive. Pike got a better PC and did pretty well in cross-rush with KA.

Overall: pike > pikapp
Seniors: pike >> pikapp
Juniors: pikapp > pike

Basically it's a big tossup of what you are looking for. Pike is the down-to-earth version of ka/adphi/snu/dsig. Pike is basically a big conglomerate of weird guys in a great way. No one is pressured to be someone they dont want to be. Pikapp is generally nicer guys but softer with less social skills. Pike is douchier than pikapp overall. Pikapp guys are awesome, "normal," and friendly and less "weird" than Pike, but pike uses the weirdness to their advantage as is better overall.
