B- would you rather be at a school with 12,000 students, 19 sororities and only 100 PNMs and a quota of 5.2 and the sororities probably have to work their asses off just to get the 100 pnms to go through rush.
I would rather have A. B looks more cut-throat to me.

Madmax, you're looking at it as "in which schools are the sororities more desperate and therefore rushing dirtier to get members". We women are looking at it from the rushees' point of view because they're a lot more likely to get done dirty than the sororities are. It all depends on exactly what you want to know when you ask why rush is more cutthroat at certain schools.
I can find you a bunch more girls who were devastated by being rejected by their preferred group(s) than sororities who were crushed because their rush crushes didn't pledge. But no, I don't have the answer to that because if you increase quota, you hurt the smaller groups and sorority size can get unmanageably big.
