You can't control what effect your class standing and GPA will have on your recruitment at this point. You can only control what comes next -- and that includes mentally preparing yourself for a busy week. Worrying about your chances and how "competitive" the process may be will not help you navigate the upcoming recruitment week.

Some motherly advice -- it's time to stop worrying about the process and finding reasons that you may not succeed. The only way you will definitely never find a Greek home is never to try.

It's time to rest all you can, breathe deeply, and think positive thoughts -- imagine the new friends you will meet in your rush group, and how great you will look in the outfits you chose. From this point forward, your mental preparation could make all the difference in not only your enjoyment of the process, but also in your outcome.

All the best to you -- hoping you find your Greek home!

Very good advice!
