I'm just worried because I want to be seen for who I can be rather than my mistakes.
Angel- You're right. I know people who have the hierarchy of the sororities memorized and choose based on that. I'm not interested in something so superficial, and I hope the sororities are the same way about me. Thanks!
I think you need to NOT focus so much on your lack of social experiences your freshman year of the who you met and who you haven't, and focus your energies on what you DO have going for you.

If it's a very competitive school, be sure to have:
1) A stellar GPA
2) Recs for each house
3) organizations you are involved in
4) A good reason for wanting to join a sorority, other than "I want someone to go out with on Thursday nights"
5) I'm sure some philanthropy work couldn't hurt you

Go with the flow and do your best. Since you'll be rushing as a sophomore, you will likely need to have all that you can possibly get to make you stand out more since you will be 'competing' for a spot with a whole lot of freshmen.

Stop worrying about the things that you are worried about and can no longer change. Focus on what you CAN change to have a good recruitment.
