If you work hard enough, you probably can get a rec for each chapter at a school. But you would be surprised how many girls don't, whether they don't want to try hard enough or they already have their minds made up about where they want to be and don't bother with recs for other chapters. This happens a lot at my school. In many chapters you will get cut after the first round if you don't have a rec. Well, if you get cut from your top choices for other things, and you get cut from those middle chapters because you didn't bother to get a rec since you knew you couldn't possibly belong there, you are stuck with very few options after the first round. Then you come to greekchat and complain about how unfair and mean all the sororities at your school are.
