I feel like a broken record here.
We do get it. Your school really isn't that unique. I don't know of a single big Greek competitive school where the non-Greeks don't loathe the Greeks and take every opportunity to kick them.

The OP had a friend in the chapter who gave her a bid, someone she felt close enough to confide in that she wanted them to drop her. That tells me she had something in common with sisters in that chapter because her friend does. Among other things, they probably aren't great rushers. (Who would be if you're the chapter where people would rather gouge their eyes out instead of joining?)

The OP may have only considered herself a number on Alpha Chi's bid list, but you know what? If that chapter had dropped her before pref, she would have just been a number on the chapter she wanted's bid list. Because she wasn't high enough on their first bid list to receive a bid without guaranteed placement. There were more pnms they wanted more than they wanted her. Harsh but true.
