It is rare, but possible, for a sophomore to have a better rush than they did freshman year. There are cases here or there of girls who accepted bids to mid-tier homes and then got top tier the next year...but wayyyy more common for the other way around to happen. It is virtually IMPOSSIBLE to have a better rush junior year than sophomore year, however. Whatever options you had this year as a sophomore, you will have worse next year. Why? Sophomores are (generally) not penalized during rush. Due to the fact that this school has so many spring transfers, sororities will take a full portion of sophomores. Freshmen may be preferred, but you will never get cut simply because you are a sophomore. This is true from top houses to bottom. Juniors are way different. Generally a sorority will have a junior "quota" that does not count against normal quota. Sororities will gladly take up these "free spaces" (2 is common), but no more. So what does that mean? Outside of struggling chapters, most sororities will only take 2 juniors. That means just short of 20 juniors will get bids, and only 8 will get "top houses". I was not on numbers this year, but a recent recruitment had just over 80 juniors. Do the math... So essentially, juniors getting a bid from ANY top or mid-tier sorority are the cream of the crop that should have had whatever house they wanted as a freshman or sophomore. So good luck, but expect no better than what you had... I'd look at AGD.
