MUUUUCH THANKS to all of you that have replied!! The info is all really really helpful. I just checked my school's panhel. website and they said that recs weren't really needed but more like 'extra credit', so they didn't affirm nor deny a bid. I'm a little more relaxed now

!!! Oh, for those of you have asked, I'm going to UT-Knoxville...forgot to mention that earlier..oops!
one more quick question...
I've read on here about how to 'stand out' during rush so you will be remembered and I was just wondering...is there any little cues you can pick up from the sisters as to whether or not they're really interested in you? I know they're all usually super-nice to everyone, so will you just get *a feeling* if they are genuinely (sp?) interested?
Thanks again! You all are awesome!
