I'll answer as best as I can but these are generic answers because I'm not familiar with your school.

1. 2-3 recs are probably sufficient. I'm not sure any group wants to get 10. I would pick the 2-3 people who know you best and will write you the best recommendation and go with them.

2. Yes, you can have a chapter ranked last and be invited back to the Chapter based on your other invites. Having a second chance to take a look at a Chapter is never a bad thing. Sometimes people have a completely different experience the second time around.

3. I would look at Facebook, the recruitment book and other references when deciding what to wear. You could also ask some of the people you know now before school gets out.

4. Typically you can take notes between parties. On some campuses Pan provides you with booklets. Some girls will use their phone if they don't take it away. I would come with a small notebook and pen just in case. I would keep notes on how the Chapter made you feel and be as detailed as possible. Trust me, you will be tired at the end of the day and your memory will be foggy.

5. question answered above.

6. question answered above. And ask her about the Greek Forum wardrobe.

7. Casual head shot and not a pageant photo. You want them to recognize you when you walk in the door.

8. Have fun! Be opened minded. Treat each day as if it is the first day of recruitment and the invites you have are the only Chapters on campus. Trust the system and if you get to the end and can not possibly see yourself in any of the Chapters you have left walk away and don't come back here and whine that you were released from recruitment because you weren't. You had options that you decided not to use. Don't listen to tent talk it is not always accurate and it is ALWAYS some one else's opinion.

9. I'm so old I don't remember.

Good luck.
