Personally, don't be too hard on the Group B type...they're usually the ones to succeed in high paying jobs after graduation and could potentially be big alumni donors to your chapter.

The recruitment team has full power to extend bids to whoever they want as long as they all agree and the recruits fit our GPA requirements. Our recruitment success has always been so poor that its become a trend to accept whatever we can get. Luckily, a miracle happened with our last pledge class, and we got about 15 great guys. Now that we have a solid group of new Group A guys to support the rest of us, we should finally be able to improve our fraternity and not recruit anyone who walks in the door.
As far as the Group B type members--they are actually the ones that are not doing well in school and are bringing down our chapter GPA. Surprisingly, its the Group A members who do well in school, are involved on campus, and have their priorities in order.
