DTDAlum, there are many factors that go into putting a pnm on a bid list or even the pnm making it to a pref. party. a low gpa(or low based on the chapter's requirement) is an easy factor on which to release a pnm in the early rounds, no matter how sparkling her personality.

but in your scenario, the bland girl with the 4.0 may not have made it to prefs., while the 3.4 with the great personality may have.

Exactly. Which is why The Importance of Conversation/Personality During Recruitment is one of my favorite GC threads. I point all PNMs from my area to that one, and strongly encourage them to practice their conversation skills all summer.

The resume gets you noticed early. The personality helps you stand out from the pack through the later rounds. Chapters want girls that are going to help their GPA standing, as well as be leaders in the chapter. But they also want FRIENDS that they will enjoy being around.
