It is a total credit to you that you dig the Breakfast Club
I think you aren't understanding the information you are getting here. No matter how much the active members like you, if your GPA is below the national minimum they CAN'T bid you. Period. I think I can safely say that no NPC has a minimum ACT requirement. No NPC cares about ACT in any official capacity. It is all GPA. (Now I personally use ACT when writing recs, because GPA can be artificially high or low for a variety of reasons, but that isn't important to this conversation.)
In the SEC, it is much preferred to rush as a freshman, but there are exceptions, and you are that exception!
You can't be academically challenged because you got an ACT score of 32. So, you should be able to excel this year in school. You also have the opportunity to make connections (with sorority members especially) and get involved on campus. You can be the rare PNM that look a whole lot better on paper as a sophomore than a freshman.
Trust us on this one.
P.S. I have a son who got a similar ACT score AS A 7th GRADER! Yet, he had an attitude at school. If an assignment was "beneath him" (as in, involved the use of glue, scissors, markers, etc.) he just wouldn't do it. He would rather just get an F. I used to say to him, "now who is smarter, the 7th grader with a 32 on his ACT who just took an F, or the 7th grader who can't spell but knows enough to do his assignments?" It sounds like you've realized that your skipping classes days weren't the best idea, but seriously, don't try that in college.
