In my sorority, gpa is looked at the first night to see if a girl is a grade risk. But after that it is pretty much ignored. It only becomes important as a type of tie breaker. Of course if a girl has a phenominal gpa the chapter will be made aware of it, but it's not really a big deal. But then at my school, incoming freshman are EXPECTED to have 4.0!
Personality is the major thing in rush. The girls you meet are trying to figure out if you'll click with any girls in the chapter, even if it's not with the ones you talk to.
If you get a chapter that your not happy with, you can quit before you're initiated and still be eligible to join another one. But you'll have to wait a calender year.
I say go through rush! At the very least you could meet some great friends in your Rho Chi group. Talk about your experience in student council and any & all other activities; and most important- be yourself.
Just try to have fun. When I went through rush I kept telling myself that I was picking them & that I was in control. That way I wasn't as nervous because the sororities were trying to impress me and not the other way around.
Good Luck!
