Yet this is exactly what you are doing. As an older, upperclassmen transfer, you will get your ass kicked in rush if you do this.

This is NEVER the attitude to have going into recruitment. Hopefully you can shake this off and truly go in with clear eyes so that you can maximize your options and have the best recruitment possible.

Which chapters have the same values as you do? Some chapters place a higher priority on scholarship or philanthropy or intramurals than than others do, what values/aspects of Greek life speak to you the most? Those are the type of things you should be looking for when evaluating a chapter.

Maybe what I should have said was I share the same values as Daisy and Tulip as they are the ones who openly value philanthropy and academics. That's what I'm looking for in a sorority. That's what I was trying to say, I'm sorry I worded that wrong.
And please don't jump down my throat for what I'm about to say next but regardless of how competitive my school is or what year/age/status I am isn't the point of recruitment to find a group of likeminded people? If XYZ values high GPAs, participating in a lot of philanthropies, and I get along with them but it's also considered a popular sorority, don't I have the same right to rank them at the top as an 18 year old freshman would? If the sorority doesn't agree that I belong then I get cut from them and go to the sororities that invite me back. Again, recruitment hasn't officially started yet, I'm just excited about getting to meet the chapters. I'm sorry I decided to start early and use the resources available to see what each chapter values.
I hope yall don't think I'm a diva who thinks she deserves to be in the #1 sorority and if I get cut by them I'll drop out, because I don't and I won't.
