Besides, I don't believe there's too many chapters where they come down to deciding between a fantastic upperclassman and a so so underclassman. The chapters where upperclassman have no real chance tend to cut them early.
I was a junior transfer student that rushed during informal spring recruitment. I knew nothing about rushing but understood very quickly that I had to be clear that I had two years ahead of me at least since it was my first quarter at the school.
I agree with most everyone that it depends on the chapter and the school. The only universal advice I'd give to a junior/senior PNM is the same I'd give to any PNM. Don't fall in love with a chapter too quickly, give chapters a fair chance, and follow your heart.
