Yeah Iowa! Iowa is moderately competitive. Several years ago or more, there was a big difference between the biggest chapters and the smallest chapters, and it caused a lot of drops. Now, I really feel like there is no reason for a girl to drop out because of who she's left with after any given round. I would STRONGLY suggest sticking with it to the end, even if she's terribly disappointed after a round of cuts. The Iowa Greek system is a TON of fun, and that's top to bottom. There are still too many drops at Iowa, but if the girls did the smart thing, the pledge classes could end up in the 50's-60's. As it is, it's made its way to the mid 40's.
I think at all schools, grades are used as the primary cut after round 1. If she doesn't meet the minimum standard on the one thing that is not subject to opinion, then it really wouldn't be fair to keep her.
