And knowing too much or vomiting out facts about a sorority to a member can be creepy and seem stalkery.

I know you already know (or think you know) the grade requirements for all of the chapters. I would do your best to forget all that. There's a lot more to member selection than you think, and you can't control any of it. Go in with a positive attitude and a sparkling personality, wow them with how awesome you are as a person, and then see where the chips fall. If it doesn't work out for you, do your absolute best to improve your grades in the next semester and maybe you can informal rush next spring. But you don't need to worry about that now either.
Yes and you risk looking like a total creeper if you start chattering away about all the sorority facts especially during early rounds. So not impressive. I would also be seriously offended if I knew the only reason you did so much research on my sorority is because you decided beforehand based on assumptions that we were one of the only ones who might let you sneak in with a poor GPA.
