Only you can determine whether it's worth a shot to rush as a sophomore.

Upperclass girls have gotten bids there, just not very many.

But they have the upperclassman quota, right? Wouldn't that mean that you had about the same chance of getting a bid as a freshman?

Do some groups not take upperclassman anyway?

but isnt that to say much fewer numbers of upperclassmen go through rush?

I'd think so. Yes, having upperclassman quota does help, but this is not to say that every upperclassman going through recruitment is going to get a bid.

I think it's set the same way though. I think it just reflects that many fewer upperclassmen were in recruitment. (8 times however many chapters at Bama would give the number of upperclassman signing bid cards, I think.)

I suspect that even the 75% figure may reflect that part of the other 25% dropped out, rather than were cut out, unless the OP knows differently.
