I went to all of the houses the first day, and thought I had great conversations with all of the houses, but i had an idea which two I wanted to cut. The next day my schedule said I had been cut from three of my top houses, and had to go back to my bottom two. The next day of rush I had the best natural conversations at 3 houses, only to find out the next day i got cut from all of my top choices except for one, and yet again had to go back to my bottom 2. Im all for giving sororities a chance, but I could NEVER see myself in the bottom two and would never wear my letters in public although I was still polite and friendly. Any advice about what may have gone wrong?

Nothing went wrong - it just turned out that the houses you preferred to go to didn't see in you what they were looking for. No one on GC is going to be able to tell you why that is because, as has often been said here, that's membership selection and it's private.
And how nice that you felt two organizations were so beneath you that you would never want to wear their letters in public if you joined. I'm sure they're glad they dodged a bullet by not having you in their NM class.
