forget greekrank

PNMs forget rankings. Give every house a chance and pick the houses you feel most comfortable in. Every house has programming and events in place to provide you with a terrific experience, even newer houses. The only ones ranking on here are insecure people who are desperately trying to find some way to feel superior to others. If you feel you need to be in a “better” sorority to feel better about yourself, then you will not find enough of that kind of support in a sorority.
Instead, you need to see sororities for what they really are: each is a group of women working to find connections and friendships through social programming and group responsibilities designed to appeal to and support a variety of college women. Each chapter will give you opportunities to meet and form friendships within a very diverse group of about 400 women by providing all kinds of shared college experiences via sorority events and meals. Each provides a beautiful place to gather and live. If you participate in good faith, you will meet plenty of women and you will most likely bond with a few great friends. Most women usually have plenty of events to attend and most find very close friends, regardless of the house they join.
Any PNM going through recruitment that has fallen for GR rankings and believes any group of 400 women might be beneath her, status-wise, is seriously fooling herself.

If you have to fake your way into a house, it makes sense that you're not going to find as many girls like you. Be yourself. Have genuine conversations and find girls you want to spend more time with. If you're basing your choices off greek rank, that's a fake choice and it will come back to bite you.

I remember being amazed to find that the houses and girls were pretty indistinguishable. Top houses, bottom houses, pretty houses, smart houses, etc. They all are very similar. So don't drop out if you don't get your top 2 houses back. Trust the process and be determined to love the house you get.

Seriously? Shut up and go away. How can I post stuff about sororities on here to make them look bad if you're posting this silly touchy feely stuff?
It's bad enough that I live on here year after year and I haven't actually changed anything at any of schools I post on without YOU making it harder.

Before recruitment, I was on GR and believed all the rank posts, so I have to say I was very confused when I actually went through recruitment. My feelings about some houses were very different from ranks I had read about. I am happy to say the above is very true. I love my house and did find best friends in my house, and I have friends in other houses that love their houses as well. The best advice I could give any PNM is to be ready to embrace the house that picks you and do not worry about ranks. No one really cares here.

And now that I’m here, the reputations I had read about didn’t really pan out. Truly all houses have great girls and no one here talks about ranks or tiers.

This is the corollary to what op said. If insecure you needs to have a "better" sorority to feel "better" about yourself, you're going to be disappointed. Why? Because all those seemingly secure, beautiful, together, smart, involved girls that you want to be sisters with are totally going to see right through your pretenses and drop you like a hot potato. That happened to a girl I knew from high school. And sure, you might always be knows as an XYZ, but you're not going to have good college friends that are your bridesmaids and life-long friends. So it's way better to really see where you fit in and where you'll be happy. And it's not in a house you had to pretend and social climb to get a bid to.
