Those are only a good choice IF you aren't using them as a "consolation prize" for not getting a bid to an NPC or NPHC or other social group. Alpha Phi Omega is also coed. It also considers itself a service fraternity, not a volunteer organization.
A pretty basic thing to say is: if the school you are transferring to is listed in
this thread, you don't have a snowball's chance in hell of getting a bid at your age. Other than that, DS is right - if you go through round one of rush and find no one in any group you can converse with or vice versa, you'll know it isn't for you. If you find a spark somewhere, keep on going.
As far as your two in-laws in XYZ, unless they were in XYZ at your future school, that was THEIR experience. The XYZ chapter at your school may be light years away from what they described, and had they gone through rush at your school, they may have hated XYZ. Don't let what they say color your preferences one way or the other.
