No one was "throwing mud", certainly not me. I should have been more specific. Every student, including those without the additional challenges you face, wants to bring up their GPA and not all are successful in doing so. Therefore sororities must base their decisions on what a PNM's GPA currently is, not what the PNM plans/hopes it will be because that may never happen. Everyone here was simply trying to offer the most common explanation of why any PNM gets cut heavily early in the process.

As for your having Aspergers, all I can offer is this. You said earlier that you did not have any Recs which could have offered some insight to the members, nor did you have friends within the Chapters that could have explained. I have to wonder if the Chapter members knew that you have Aspergers and if they did, did they understand what all that entails? It's certainly not something that could be easily explained in the very brief amount of time of a Recruitment party. I confess I know very little about Aspergers and I have been surrounded by children with a variety of special needs and challenges for 12 years due to my daughter. I pressume the collegians you encountered knew even less than me.

I will stop here and will leave the advice to others who are more educated in this matter.
