I underscore what irishpipes said about recs being important and until this year, I thought recs were the only way to know about a PNM's academics.
But this year I learned that if a PNM is thorough and detailed on her UGA recruitment registration form, academics as well as all sorts of involvement, awards, leadership, etc will also be made known to all the chapters.
Also, there is a separate upperclassmen quota now in place at UGA so non-freshman are not as "undesirable" as they have been in the past. I personally know three young women who went thru formal recruitment as sophomores after very disappointing freshman recruitment experiences and all three got their top choices the 2nd time around.
