Thanks!

It's also, for me, one of those "if only you had known then what you know now" types of things. I'm so glad that I got cut by my top choice. I mean, they're a great group of girls, but I'm not sure I would have felt as comfortable or gotten as involved, or even if I would have stuck with it.
texas*princess, I agree with everything you said 100 times over. Although I can't say I ever believed I was "too good" for my sorority, my deciding factor when I did my final rankings was which sorority was the most popular. I just got lucky that "fate" intervened and I ended up where I did.
I just wish more PNM's would understand that, like KSUViolet06 said, the only place that popularity matters is in college. My mom always quotes that passage about "100 years from now, it won't matter what car you drove, etc." I don't remember all of it, but my point is, even 10 years from now, it won't matter what "tier" you were in. A lot of my younger friends have gone through Rush in the last two years, and the only piece of advice I will ever give them is to NEVER cut a sorority based on their stereotype or their popularity.
