My school has been named to me as an example of a system that doesn't really follow the typical "tier" system and I'm inclined to agree. Although you could probably divide the sororities up if you tried, for the most part I agree with those who have told me that there is a strong "top two" or "top three" and then the rest of the sororities are really not too different in strength -- it all depends on what you're looking for in a group. Ditto the fraternities.
I wouldn't really say that there's any concrete way of figuring "tiers" out, although rush figures would be one way for the sororities. But then, I can think of many chapters on this campus who would rank lower or higher than their return rates suggest simply because the way rushees view the groups is a little different from the way the rest of campus does.

And I would say on your campus there's also a very distinct bottom two houses - and the others are lumped in the middle. I know this from my GDI friends, so obviously word gets around.
