You said that a couple of the guys just don't seem to like you. They're the ones you need to worry about. Find out what's thier deal.
Did you do something without knowing to one of them, friends, girlfriends, or evens girlfriends friends? If any of these people have expressed a negative opinion about you you're gonna have a tough time.
For instance if some guy was a jerk to one of my friends and he then rushed a fraternity that I thought was full of great guys, I'd let them know. Which would almost guarantee he'd not get a bid. Mine you I'd be doing that because I wouldn't want the fraternity to be known for having some jerky guys not just to screw the guy over.
But anyways...if you've rushed twice and REALLY want to be in that particular chapter I'd re-examine your reasons. Maybe they're getting the wrong idea, or at this point they might think you're desperate. And that'd kill your chances too.
Mostly I'd say focus on the guys that seem to have a problem with you. It takes a majority of a chapter to vote you in but it only takes one guy to say "I'll deactivate if he joins." to keep you out.
Just be yourself, be confidant, and don't kiss ass. That's soooo annoying.
Good Luck
