is being a cob new member less fulfilling?

Ladies who joined your sorority in COB, do you feel fulfilled having joined in the spring and not having the typical new member experience? I mean obviously you'll get bigs and initiated just like everyone, but did you feel different from the girls in the fall pledge class or did you blend well? Also was it a big deal your bid day wasn't huge like in fall? I wanna know if it's worth doing COB this semester or if I should just do fall rush. I'm not really concerned about having to choose from all 15 chapters, I'm happy to join whoever will take me.
