It's really impossible to tell because it depends on where they rank you. However, I wish you the very best of luck and hope you get an invitation to that house for house tours!

You don't, really. That's why it's important to treat every conversation the same---be enthusiastic and authentic.

I went through as a sophomore and had no issues, didn't have a ton of connections in houses either. You don't have to be "bubbly" but be engaged and sociable and do your best to make real connections but not be fake.....you'll do just fine.

Yes- but what are you looking for? If you ONLY want a top house and will only be happy with that, it may be harder in your situation. Or if you want to make new friends and have shared experiences, and experience sisterhood, you can find that as a sophomore during recruitment. Just stay open and honest with yourself, and see where the process takes you. GL!

There's no one way that this happens, so I can only speak generally. Every house has a different method for deciding their list to be asked back. There is an element of voting with all houses, but in some houses, the recruitment team and or sometimes even alumni help to rank the list. In all cases, it definitely helps if you have people in the house who want you and speak up for you, especially if its an officer or a sister with influence.
Here's where it's tricky, the house's list matches back to the PNM's and their own ranks. So the most competitive houses fill up quickly - PNM can be a spot down on the list and miss the cut. So when you get cut from a house, because everyone does, it's not because they didn't want you, it's just because you were further down the list when it closed. It's a numbers game.

Typically anyone who talked to you in a specific round can vote on you, and those votes are all weighed equally.

Yes, in this instance, a senior on exec saying good things about you could be helpful. Every house is different as to how they evaluate and decide how they rank their list. It's a combination of factors, and every conversation you have contributes, but certainly someone in a leadership role is usually very respected.

It's important to follow the rules, and no one wants to get dropped for any reason. Just know that everything will be OK. Focus on finding a group of girls that you feel comfortable with. Rank and stuff like that really doesn't matter in the long run.

This depends less on your sister's role and rep in the srat and more on how you connect with actives during recruitment. However, IMO your connection may get you through to philanthropy round as a courtesy if they're not seeing you in your new member class.
