thanks everyone for the advice. it has truly made me think about the mindset i was going into rush with and i now hope that i can change it and will be able to ACTUALLY go into it with an open mind instead of just saying i am.

thanks and i'm sorry again.

also i have a thought about what someone said about sending in college grades.
my highschool transcript isn't terribly impressive, but i worked really hard my first semester at college and made a really good gpa. i feel like my college transcript is going to save me during rush! i'm glad i gave myself that opportunity to show everyone that i'm a serious student.

No need to apologize.

Something I wanted to note though, is that depending on where you go to school, your college GPA may not make up for your lack of recs. There are certain schools where 99% of the girls have great GPAs and multiples recs per chapter. It is tough, but some places, recs are really important.

It's August though and there may not be a whole lot you can do about lacking recs at this point. Keep trying and if you don't get them all you just have to do the best you can see what happens.
