He meant that you spelled it wrong. Instantaneously.

AAAARRRHHH!!!! Sorry, I read and spell too quickly. (Or maybe it is age?) I'll go with age.

Proofing is tough...you can read things a million times and never see the error, but a new set of eyes will see it instantaneously! :p

In addition to this, if a sorority is not at campus total, they may bid over and above quota until they get to campus total.

All I can say is, you might get a LOT of weird looks if someone dyslexic read that.

As one who went through as a sophomore, I found it really helped me to talk about why I decided not to go through my freshman year. Personally, I decided to wait because I didn't think I was in it for the right reasons my freshman year, and waiting that extra time allowed me to figure out my place on campus and get to know some of the girls before trying to rush. Clearly, this won't work everywhere (and it might even totally work against you, I have no idea what it's like at your school!) but that was my personal experience. Your reasons are likely different, but I personally think that it helps to talk about why you waited. Obviously, your good grades and campus involvement will help! Stay positive :)

I rushed as a sophomore also, and in some ways I think it helped me in standing out through the conversations we had. Because I was a sophomore, I didnt live on campus so the typical dorm questions were put to rest. Instead the sisters and I would talk about why I waited to rush, what I was already involved with in college, how I was liking my major, ect. I came into rush only knowing a handful of greek women and pledged my first choice house where I didn't know any girls. While I realize that my experience is not typical, I think that upperclassmen have a leg up on freshman in some aspects. If you have involvement, you've already proven to the chapter that you are active in the campus community...and not just a freshman SAYING you will be (when you possibly wont) you also may already know sorority women. Or, you might have similar experiences are the sisters you meet such as dorm life, clubs youre involved in, ect.
