I work in the Career Services for an MBA Program. I don't know much about other fields, but for business students...
For the first job or so GPA is good to have...we've also been told by recruiters that they think if its not on there that it is below a 3.0. As for SAT scores...I'm personally not a big fan, but we don't deal with that since we are working with graduate students (at this point it should definately not be on there). But every now and then we'll see a student put their GMAT on there. If you insist on having a score...it would be better to put 99th percentile on the GMAT rather than the actual score.
As far as Greek activities...
Work experience (related to the job) is always the priority and since space is usually an issue Greek stuff should be limited. But some things can be relevant....you want to be an event planner...you coordinated recruitment or socials. Word it in a manner than highlights what you did over the social aspect. Always use numbers to quantify activities (and work experience)--managed a 10,000 budget or something along those lines. If if isn't quantifiable, then it probably won't help get you the job and should be seriously considered before putting it on the resume (there are always exceptions).
