Does this mean I won't get a bid?

(( I cut out this whole first paragraph for the whole identifying information thing, so sorry if the rest doesn't make sense, thanks all for answers! ))

Then, I come on here and see all these people saying "Oh, all of the homecoming queen cheerleaders with 5.0 GPAs are going to get rejected because all of the girls rushing are like this!"
Um... What? Well that could be an issue.

I understand the kind of girl sorority life attracts, but does that mean that any girl who wasn't number one in her class, head cheerleader and prom queen extraordinaire won't get a bid? I may not be these things, and I wasn't the most popular girl in my high school, but I was never unpopular or teased for anything. I'm friendly and I'm not shy, definitely not when it comes to first meeting someone. I believe I'm pretty. But I wasn't prom queen, and I didn't really aspire to be- I want to be a part of a sorority because of all the other stuff, not because I want to be in some kind of royal standing with the rest of the school.

I plan to go to a large SEC school. My cousin, who rushed at another school where Greek Life is important, said she was confident I'd get a bid. But this has me worried! I just want to be a part of this- Will my lack of stereotypical traits that apparently 'every other girl' has be my downfall? Please help

((Oh, a big thing is that I didn't hold a lot of leadership positions in my main extracurriculars, but a lot of the reason for that is because I've had jobs both this year and last year, which are the two main years of holding office in most clubs and such! Will this be a huge issue?))
