Not to blast anyone who disagreed with the quiz in general, but I didnt see anything wrong with it and being labeled a "sorority girl" based on that criteria.... I am in a sorority, i AM a sorority girl, I do wear tiffanys and i like to get manicures. I dont think it makes me superficial. I scored "high" or whatever, and I might "look" like a sorority girl (whatever that means), but I am not a superficial person.. .

I dont base my friends on looks or what they wear-- in fact I detest people who talk about that stuff all the time. I had a group of friends who only talked about juicy coutour, gucci, and 7 jeans, etc, and it bored me to death. I might like that stuff to wear for myself, but i dont judge people on whether they have it or not. I know this is completely off topic, but its something i was thinking about.

to the other Northern girls, what exactly did the quiz mention that was very southern? and where in the north are you? this quiz seemed very applicable to sororities in NJ (or my school at least)...


I am from New York City, so even though our states are next to each other I bet things are different. You would be surprised at the differences between northern and southern sororities and also black and white sororities, or multicultural. There are many....

I think that the quiz made sorority girls look like we were all into fashion and high strung, I am entitled to my opinion. I like to wear name brand clothes as well, I should know I am from NY, but that quiz asked a good number of questions about fashions and things of the nature. If you didn't know some sororities do have the reputation that they are all into fashion. One sorority at my school will not accept you if your clothing is not up to their standards and I think that is wrong. You have to look beyond what goes on in your state or school and see why so many girls on GC did not agree with the quiz.
