A friend of mine who went to a super-competitive school said that recs from alumnae of the chapter carried more weight than those from other alumnae and alumnae recs carried more weight than collegians. That was not necessarily my experience. Different types of recs didn't carry extra weight with me in anything other than maybe "Oh, I love Suzy Recent Alum! She recommended Polly PNM? I'll be sure to keep an eye out for Polly, then!" At least not for me.
I think it really depends on the chapter and the school. It also kind of gets into the whole "MS is secret" business so it's possible that if the tiers of recs were important in a chapter a member might not be able to say so.
