PNMS: If you're looking at GreekRank for guidance on which house is right for you, you're not looking in the right spot. What you'll see on here is extremely competitive sorority women bashing other houses and favoriting their own in the hopes that you'll choose their house.
Here is what you need to ask yourself as you go through recruitment:
1. WHY are you looking to join a sorority?
- Are you looking for girls to go to the bars with you? Are you looking for the girls whose shoulders you cry on when you and your bf get into a fight? Are you looking for future networking connections to advance your career? Etc.
2. What attributes can/do YOU contribute to a sorority?
- Are you a leader? Do you have experience with charities and philanthropies? Are you outgoing/friendly? Etc.
3. What do you WANT from a sorority/sisterhood?
- Diversity, intelligence, popularity, parties, new friends, home away from home, etc.
When you talk to girls during recruitment, don't just go by which house is the prettiest, which one has the prettiest girls, or whatever. Answer those 3 questions and when you talk to sisters in different houses, see which chapter's values and ideals line up with yours.
Keep this in mind while you rush and you will find the house that's right for you. Ignore bullsiht rankings/tiers. I would rather be bottom of the bottom and HAPPY vs. top of the top and miserable (that is not insinuating girls at the top aren't happy!!). Good luck, PNMs! We're excited to meet you :)

I totally agree.
Make your OWN decision and don't be influenced by anything but your experience during the rounds and realm of recruitment.
Lastly, as blunt as this is: don't allow yourself to be dirty rushed. You are selling yourself short. You won't find out what you really want by giving in to that and the girls who are dirty rushing you are only looking out for their house - not for you.

Another thing to keep in mind. PNMS: if you have been dirty rushed aka sisters in a house have taken extreme interest in you and have tried to make you love them well before rush began, rethink what's happening. A house shouldn't have to do you all of these sorts of favors to get you to like them because it isn't a real depiction of the house. Go with the house that impressed you and made you love them all on your own. Don't succumb to being dirty rushed you will be disappointed
