It really depends on the girl and why she was dropped by a chapter -
grades: if you had a 3.1 in high school and then get a 3.8 your freshman year, and don't become a QR drunken boyfriends stealing mess, and are still put together and have great conversations during recruitment you could do better
connections: if knew no one and didn't have any recs, then freshman year you make a ton of friends in a lot of chapters, get involved in important organizations, get recs for all chapters, and also keep your grades high and don't become a QR drunken boyfriend stealing mess you could do better
Otherwise, your experience will probably be about the same
Overall though, it's not likely to be much different and you miss a year of fun

I am rushing for a second time- I dropped last year because I honestly thought the houses I got back for Pref were "beneath me"... joke was on me- this go round I have now been cut from every house except 1- which happens to be one of the ones I got back for Pref last year. So if the OP is asking because she is thinking about dropping out and going back through last year I would say don't do it- NOW is your BEST chance

I'd say you're pretty lucky to have that house back! If it were my house, and we wanted you for Pref but you dropped instead, we wouldn't even consider you the following year. Unless you cured cancer or something over the past year.
Good for you. I hope you have a great experience the next few days and finally get to run home on bid day!

So if I’m a pnm who accepted a bid and dropped and tried to rush next year as a sophomore, then I would just get dropped by all the houses?? What should I do? Should I COB next year then? Or just accept I’ll never join a sorority?
I really can’t stand my house I’m in. The girls in my PC are bullies and I just don’t feel comfortable here. And I don’t want to talk to anyone about it because I don’t want to seem like a lame new girl who’s super sensitive. I would rather just get out while I can. I made an honest mistake accepting a bid from them. I thought the older girls were kinda nice when I talked to them during rush, but I hate my PC. I can’t be friends with them. And I know I will be miserable staying in this house all 4 years. Staying here is not an option, I for sure want to drop. I’m an honest PNM who needs actual helpful advice.

You're saying that 100+ girls in your pledge class are bullies? I just wanna be clear.

If you make friends in other houses AND have a stellar gpa AND involvement this year AND Don’t get yourself a reputation this year, then drop it it’s what you want and re rush... but if you don’t get over a 3.6 you’re chances as a sophomore rushing aren’t that great especially if you’re not super close with anyone or don’t have involvement... give it 6 weeks or until initiation just to see if things change.... that’s how I felt for my first month then I started making friends and girls were nice and I realized I was the one kinda being a brat and standoffissh.
not all 110 girls are bullies, I can assure you that... and a lot of girls in a ton of other houses, both top and bottom are feeling the same way.

Every girl in your PC that you’ve know for three days is a bully? The only reason you’ll be miserable for the next four years if you stay is because of your attitude.

Most people are telling her if she is miserable, then drop. She obviously wasn't in love with this sorority by her description of the older girls being "kinda Nice", so why hang around? I am not trying to be mean, I am being honest. She doesn't seem to be willing to try to accept that there are other girls just like her. She doesn't want to be there, so her best interest is to drop before she makes others upset with her and they spread the word about it. You can graciously drop. I think it's wrong when the Greek Chat ladies come on here and try to shame them into STAYING even if they are miserable. I am saying cut your losses before it goes too far and try again. If she liked them but they weren't her first choice, then ok, try. If she didn't really want them and isn't going to really try, then drop. There is nothing wrong with that. If you are miserable then leave. Take care of yourself.

What is really funny here is that you are making assumptions about your house based on visiting it a handful of times. In that time, you talked to a handful of people. And you decided you really didn't like that house.
^^This is hysterical because it is exactly what you accuse the sisters of doing in each house during rush. "They only met me a few times. How could they know they didn't want me??"
Well, back at ya. You can't possibly know you won't like your house based on a few visits. That is why people preached giving it a chance in the past.
As far as your pledge class being bullies--- did you ever think that they are giving back what you are giving out? It's probably obvious you don't want to be there.
