ranks
by: yep
axo/kkg/pm - each one has an area where they lack, but overall its pretty universally accepted that they're top
ddd - good but not quit top, known for taking qr risks, had some really good pledge classes recently
kd/xo - highly desired, mutual distaste for and from most OOR pnms
agd - less desired OR house, good grades and sisterhood
zta/pi phi - edgy OOR girls, ZTA is typically more desired takes more grade/qr risks
adpi/dg - less memorable, good grades and involved
gphi/dz - basically ZTA/PiPhi rejects - they could fit in in those houses but have some sort of flaw that got them dropped
aphi - idk man, just having some issues lately
theta/aopi - less desired/known on campus, girls whose top trait to offer is brains
tiers are interchangeable
keeping aphi there as of rn, really not sure how their rush will go

serious question -
what really stops xo from being a top house? when i rushed i really liked them and they seemed to have put on a good rush. also, they have great grades and they're a super involved house. they're basically the equivalent of alpha chi except they seem to be more social.
i understand they don't diversify much outside of the south and i get why that hurts them. but then people also say that them being traditional in that sense is what makes them better than some NR houses. so whats the deal with them?

Chi o is a good house. They get a lot of girls who are the alpha chi/alpha gam type, but also cross rush with kappa kd and ddd.
Girls from OOS (not including MS and Louisiana) usually don’t like chi o during rush so they miss out on a lot of girls .

So why is Kappa generally ranked higher than XO? I know that most OR houses are pretty interchangeable during ranks but it seems like so many people are very persistent that Kappa is a top top house and XO which is weird considering Kappa has a more iffy reputation...

@Vibe nailed it on the head. It’s a really similar problem that kd has. Kd is a much stronger house than kappa in most regards, but their unfriendliness during rush really hurts them.
Both chi o and kd take some of the strongest in state PNMs but are really lacking in other parts of the country. They really only rush people who are well connected to the house, so both houses miss out on quality girls every year.

Depending on where you’re from, how much you value grades, how much you party, and how put together you are, your definition of top can be very different.
I would say that it’s a common consensus that AXO, DDD, KD, PM, KKG, and XO are top houses.
If you’re religious, AGD would be high up there.
If you value looks/partying, throw in ZTA or APhi

Add in Theta is top house if you have integrity, grades, and character.
(If your are going to put AGD and APhi as high up there, then you have to be fair)

Don't forget DG. If you are specializing they would be in the top group for involvement. I agree you can't include AGD as tops for religious types and APhi if you don't include other houses that are tops in specialized lists.

yes!! Putting on a universally well-liked rush does not mean that the house is friendly to out of state.
Kappa certainly has a big out of state presence, but look up their chapter officers... almost all from mobile or mountain brook. Two of my really good friends from rho chi went kappa (far OOR) and they were really disappointed by their treatment in the house once they pledged.
