rankings depend on what you're looking for
by: seniorRankings are inherently subjective. There will never be consensus about rankings for greek life, because there's no way to holistically determine what groups are superior. Grades, maybe, but other than that, there's no way to definitively say, so PNMs should go into recruitment with an open mind and think about what they're really looking for, because some groups will definitely foster that. For example, if you really like to party and have fun, you'll likely (not always, but likely) feel more comfortable with AEPhi or Kappa than with ADPi or Pi Phi. If you're really independent and like to pave your own path, you'll find likeminded girls in Theta or Phi Sig, rather than SK. All of the groups are great and have something to offer if you are just honest with yourself about what you want out of a sisterhood. If you go where you fit in, you'll find your people. Just don't try to fit a square peg in a round hole.

Kind of confusing that you are encouraging PNMs to not follow stereotypes and go into recruitment with an open mind but then list a bunch of stereotypes? Plenty of girls in Pi Phi and ADPi party, plenty of girls in SK are independent, and not everyone in AEPhi and Kappa party non-stop. You can find every type of girl in any sorority

I'm not in Theta, but you do have to march to the beat of your own drum to join a sorority that literally just got established. Being a founding member is a lot of work, so the girls who elect to start that chapter are certainly independent, if they have nothing else in common.

I'm mixed on this. I think OP is speaking to the majority, like most girls who really care about grades more than going to Eden will be more comfortable at ADPi, and most girls who like hanging out with very similar people will like AEPhi over Chi O. I think it's more, go where you actually fit, regardless of tiers. Of course in chapters over 100 girls, there will be hot Phi Sigs and ADPis that go out every night, but it's more about overarching values. ADPi and Chi O have had consistently top grades for years - you don't see a lot of girls getting bad grades in those chapters like you do with Kappa. Sure, Kappa has some very intelligent girls who are campus leaders, but consider their GPA - they had the lowest GPA last year, so will a valedictorian PNM fit in with the majority of the sisters?
That being said, we shouldn't fall into the clearly divisive stereotypes, because that's when it gets mean. The chapters aren't identical, and they don't offer identical experiences to all members, but we should embrace that difference rather than tear each other apart for not being cookie cutter.
