I think that she means they started out with 24 new members and went down to 12 that were initiated. If you see the other story she mentions, it is quite similar!

Thank you all for your good luck wishes! Since I'm way too excited, so I'm up way too early I figured I'd catch up a little more...
Yesterday was Saturday and due to a cruel twist of fate (orrrr simply bad planning on my part...) my godparents were coming into town from a few states away to have lunch with me, and the parties started at 12. I missed the first two, which left only two spots left -I had to cut myself out of the running from sororities that I really liked! But such is life, I figure, as is everyone's mantra here, I'll end up where I belong! I went with my gut and went to the parties for Izzie and Meredith.
Izzie was first and it was their philanthropy day, so we talked about the many different things that they do, and how they're involved and I got such a good feeling again. I couldn't help myself, I let slip how much I really liked Izzie and the girl who was escorting me got so excited and said "You have no idea how good that is to hear! Honestly, we would much rather extend a bid to a girl who seems genuinely interested in us than someone who we're unsure about!" Again came that really good feeling! I met so many girls, the girl escorting me seemed extremely excited to be introducing me ("showing me off" she called it, it was adorable!) that I left with a very good feeling and with many girls saying they definitely wanted to see me again.
From there I quick changed into a dress and went to Meredith's pref party. There were an insane number of girls there! They had a beautiful ceremony that I'm not supposed to talk about, but suffice it to say that it was quite moving. I was preffed by one of my friends, when I walked into the room and they called my name she leapt over to me, grabbed my arm and immediately started talking to me. I got a really good feeling for why she chose Meredith and it made me feel even more at home because she actually didn't end up pledging until she was a junior! I had been a little worried about being a sophomore, but not any more. I left feeling torn again, each time I think I've made up my mind I keep getting confused again! Eeek!
Anyway, so now I'm all caught up and I have to go get dressed for Izzie's pref party...Wish me luck!

Good luck(again), and don't worry too much. I feel like the tough decisions work themselves out when you have to sit down and make them!

Good luck tinydancer! Kind of fun to see two threads from the same campus at the same time, I guess.
