I also want to point out that, with spring rush, it may be less about how you are coming across, and more about connections you've made the previous semester. Obviously you can't go back in time, but if it seems like other rushees are getting more attention, it may have nothing to do with anything you are doing at the event itself; maybe those rushees already knew the guys. Which is to say, relax, see if it feels like a fit, and if not, consider making friends with guys in fraternities to be ready for the fall.

Very true, a lot of people I talked to seemed to already know some of the brothers, although I'm not sure how likely this is because most of the rushes were freshman and the brothers at the party were juniors+. I had 2 connections in a different fraternity that would've definitely given me a bid, but I didn't rush that frat, mostly since there is a very negative connotation associated with it. I decided to rush BBB even though I didn't know anybody because I wanted to see if maybe I could get in on my own merit. Poor choice in hindsight.
