christi86,
I've been on GC for nearly 6 years (May is my 6 year anniversary), so I have seen and read a lot in those 5+ years. I think that this thread itself is a big risk, because you have divulged far too much already. There are people from UF on this board and I am sure that they are reading this thread with interest. That being said, UF Formal Recruitment is EXTREMELY competitive and I am not sure that you would have an "equal" chance as a sophomore vs. being a freshman. From a financial perspective, it is in a chapter's best interest to have a dues-paying member for 4 years, not 3.
As for the girl who was not polite to you at that "Panhellenic" meeting: try not to let her tarnish your perception of her sorority. You never know what is going on in her life: she might have been dumped by a b/f, or learned that her parents are getting divorced or that her grandmother is ill. You can never tell and it's likely not personally directed at YOU.
In my experience, being discreet during rush is key and I think that to be too open about your situation, particularly on these boards can be a mistake.
Just my 2 cents.
