PLEASE HELP-I need help in this situation

So I am a transfer sophomore who didnt rush frosh year becasue i knew i was transfering. I came to my new school and got in to 3 top tier frats in the fall. When it was time to choose i had no idea who to take the bid from. It came down to flipping a coin.

I picked a frat that friday and dropped that monday because I just wasnt sure still of what frat I wanted. I texted the vice president and president of the other top tier saying how I made a mistake so they extended there bid to me but unfortuatnatly only 3 bros wanted me to come in the spring to show im serious but they all still like me.

So i dropped and a couple weeks later my roommate joined a new frat that was just getting started. He said come check it out and i Did and gave it a chance for a month. I also dropped because it started with 80 kids randomly and felt like theose were the kids who didnt get bids and just 80 kids too much to start.( honestly dumb af )

Now it is the spring time and I am going to rush again. I am confident that the top tier I want again and got into that they are going to give me a
bid. But I am also goign to rush other fraternities. Do you think i got a good chnce especially getting 3 bids from 2 top tier and 1 mid tier?

Plus im a sophomore now and I feel this is my last chance to be in greeklife. I should of picked the other top tier and been regretting ever since how diff shit would be.

To me you sound like a commitment-phobe who needs to figure out what you want and stick with it.

Dude, basic rules of grammar will help you out a lot in the long run, especially when you're asking strangers on the internet for help.

It doesn't appear that you're asking for help. That is the first problem that I can identify.

We have no idea what your chances are. We don't know you!

I'll try. If I understand your question (bolded), you wonder if you have a good chance to receive a bid from a top tier chapter where you received a bid from last semester, yet later quit. If that is indeed your question, then yes, you have a chance with that “top tier” chapter. However, it is difficult to speculate as to “how good” that chance might be. They may still want you, or maybe something has changed and they don’t. As noted, we don’t know you, nor do we know the chapter. People change as do chapters.

Try for your “top tier” group, but since you don’t know for sure if you will be extended a bid, keep your options open (as you plan to do). If it doesn’t work out for you with the “top tier” chapter, you have had a semester to observe the other fraternities on your campus and you should have a better idea as to which ones you may be willing to accept a bid from.

Best of luck.
