adpiucf I'll definitely read your linked post about recruitment!

I wouldn't sweat the details to this extent. There is no test during recruitment and how well you can answer questions about ABC or XYZ will improve your odds. It's nice to look at the sorority and chapter websites so you are familiar with them in a general sense, but you don't need to "focus" on anyone's background. And knowing too much or vomiting out facts about a sorority to a member can be creepy and seem stalkery.
I know you already know (or think you know) the grade requirements for all of the chapters. I would do your best to forget all that. There's a lot more to member selection than you think, and you can't control any of it. Go in with a positive attitude and a sparkling personality, wow them with how awesome you are as a person, and then see where the chips fall. If it doesn't work out for you, do your absolute best to improve your grades in the next semester and maybe you can informal rush next spring. But you don't need to worry about that now either.
