The daughter of a very good friend of mine was pre-med and also was elected president of her house at a school where greek life dominates. She was extremely successful as a student and as a sorority member. Like anything else, you have to learn how to be smart and make good choices, prioritize, etc. And you will not be able to do everything.
The nice thing is, having sorority sisters means you have another support source. Pre-med is extremely stressful, like any other competitive major, and you'll need to have a place where not everyone is all about the next o-chem exam, who tested well in genetics, etc. Also, in my house, all the pre-meds got together and had study sessions together before exams. They helped each other out a great deal. Before the MCAT, a group of us surprised them with snacks late at night.
