It always pays to be honest. Let them know there were some outside issues that played in your decision to drop last year. You don't need to go into details but again, play up strengths since your previous rush experience. They will be able to see your grades, but be prepared to provide info about other groups you're involved with, just keep in mind time management might be key as far as possible consideration from a group. Also beyond anything keep an open mind to any and all groups, friendship and bonds aren't forged in a day. Hopefully since your freshman year you've gotten to know people who are greek which can also be a help although certainly not an absolute when it comes to issuing a bid, but it can't hurt either. Best of luck!
