3 tier ranking

by: sorority Rush   

Simple three tier list based on pairing tiers. Separate lines indicate the houses are basically interchangeable when it comes to tier ranking. There could be a few minor switches based on personal preferences

Top
Alpha phi/ Pi phi/ Chi o
AXO/ Zeta/ Kappa
Gphi/ DZ

Middle
AXiD/ DG/ KD
AEPhi/ AOPi
Phi Mu/ Theta

Bottom
AGD/ ADPi/ SDT
SK/ TPA
DPhiE/ ASA

This is literally the exact same except agd and ADPi being middle. They are definitely higher than the rest of the bottom tier houses but they should remain bottom because middle tier doesn't contain almost half of the houses

There are no "rules" as to how many can be in middle because there are no "rules" to greekrank. This sight is opinion only and this person expressed theirs. Besides other changes were made.

Yes there are no "rules" to greekrank but it makes no logical sense to put half the houses in one tier. These are pairing tiers not what house is better than other houses tiers. I think we all know the tiers would be very different if they were based on thins like sisterhood, involvement, philanthropy, gpa, etc. These are strictly pairing tiers and the bottom tier is the same size as every other tier

I recall that 4 of the houses on top list had to snap bid for girls. Middle never did!

Who?
I know Zeta did, but what others? Many bottom also did snap such as AGD.

Really? Nobody but Panhellenic and the sorority rush chair know if a group snaps. Even top tier groups may have to snap, particularly if they’re limited on how many they can invite back. When your formal pool is small already and many going back to other top houses, it’s quite possible to be short one or two girls when bids are counted.

Quit being IGNORANT and acting like it’s always a bad thing, no matter who does it. It ultimately means more ladies are going to be sorority women—isn’t that our goal?

True and not true. The recruitment team for each chapter can pretty much guess who got snaps. If you didn't attend pref but yet you show up at ZTA on Bid Day, you got a snap. Same thing with Kappa and Alpha Phi. However, Alpha Phi played their two snaps off as they were at pref, you just didn't see them. Snaps are a common thing with upper and lower tier houses because of RFM. Middle tier chapters do a better job of figuring out who to invite to their parties and matching with the PMNs they have. Upper tier houses can only invite a small percentage of PMNs to pref, that's how RFM works. It levels the playing field by giving the weaker recruiting chapters a better chance to match with PNMs and make quota.

For example: Let's say ABC is the strongest recruiting chapter historically. This means if they are taking a quota of 60, RFM only allows them to invite back a small number of PNMs because they typically fill their quota first and with the girls at the top of their lists. They may only get to invite 150 PMNs to pref, but the other top houses may be inviting these same girls to their pref. So, the top chapters are cross rushing with similar chapters and fighting for the same small group of PNMs. This can cause them to miss quota by 1 or 2 just due to the fact they didn't get invite a ton of PNMs back. It's not a bad thing or a good thing, it's a numbers thing. I wish IU Greeks would figure out that 1 or 2 snaps is not a bad thing. It's only a bad thing when a chapter gives out more than 10 snaps.

The weaker recruiting chapters still have a quota of 60 but they are allowed to invite back maybe 300-400 women because many of these women will drop before pref before they get their invites back or they will match with a middle chapter on their list, or they will suicide a house they like better not ranking the lower house at all. This happens a ton at IU. A high number of women drop after they get their pref invitations back if they don't like what they get back. They should go to the pref parties and see if something changes, if not then they can not rank.

Don't understand why people are so dramatic on here about snap bids. When I rushed I took a snap bid to a middle tier house and I couldn't be happier. Ideally a house doesn't give out snap bids but it isn't the end of the world when they do

If we did random pairings, we could rush the girls we wanted instead of worrying about who will pair with us. So f’d up. I enjoy being in the top of your “rank” and the bennies that go with, but letting frats choose who they want to pair with is such BS.
