Thank you so much for any help you can give me!!"
Oh mylanta.

I find myself in something close to this situation kind of frequently. What I try to do is ask myself if the chapter would be helped by her membership rather than what her cluelessness actually deserves. So if clueless wonder gets cut by her super desirable chapters early in the process and realizes that she now kind of likes my group, does she have the kind of traits in general, despite her pre-recruitment silliness, that make her worth recommending? If so, then I recommend her as well as I would have has she not been so ignorant. Because I think often that's what it really is. They just don't know any better. They should, but they don't. And some can be educated.
