No, it may not be enough. And sure, her Rho Chi/Rho Gamma or the sorority sisters themselves should be among the first on her list if questions arise.

But sometimes PNM's have questions or concerns that they don't feel comfortable discussing with their PX's. That's where we can help.

That may be the case, and there are times when, by coincidence, there is one person from that campus who might be able to provide insight, a generic "I'm a junior rushing...any advice?" post doesn't solicit specific information.

And many times, there are no "good" answers for specific questions like "what are my chances?" - questions that have been asked and addressed repeatedly in the past.

I honestly think that people in these situations are over thinking and need to just relax and let things unfold. Follow guidelines, be genuine in your interactions within and outside of recruitment, and enjoy the experience.

I actually went through formal recruitment as a junior and it worked out for me! Just try to be yourself. I think that's the best advice that anyone can give you. If you try to be something you're not, you will not end up happy in the end. Good luck!
