other side of rush

by:    

Wow- had no clue what happens behind the scenes.
For all you PNMs that pledged a house you should be very proud.
What I found out without divulging secrets.....
No matter how much you liked a certain house and certain girls you may not have any chance you get in. Things are predetermined- not preselected, but predetermined.
Legacies are NOT guaranteed. Yes it sucks- all those recommendations etc. in the short run it will allow you to get to round 1 but that's that. ( most houses )
No matter what every house says if you are from Texas you have a head start. Simply put your chance of being known or knowing people in the house is far greater than those girls out of state.
Within the houses there are cliques from certain towns that will push for girls from their own town.
Most importantly, the girl that took you through rush, the one you clicked with, loved, and made you want to join her house and you DIDN'T get in- she is devastated, just like you! She wanted you, others wanted you- the numbers didn't add up. Enjoy your new house. Wear your letters proudly. Don't worry about "rankings". They change every year.

You know this is the real deal facts. It isn't all fair or pretty behind the curtain. It's also true some of the dirtiest houses during recruitment do not turn out to be the best quality chapters either.

It is kind of discouraging to see behind the door and realize all the efforts can't change the outcome all that much.

This is disappointing but I still think most girls ended up happy.

This same post is on the Texas A&M page. Where is the OP really from???

OP says if you are from Texas you have a head start. That would be a dumb thing to put on an Aggie post since they are almost all from Texas. Clearly a frog that an aggie stole.

Plus our Bid Day was first.

Go Frogs.

This is another reason people need to love the house that wanted them. Soooo much in society is false nowadays.
