I definately am. It took so much of my time, as an active member and as an alumni advisor.

I definitely did. It took up the most of my time and I did most of my community service through my sorority.

must be the pre-med thing to do if you are in a sorority

haha yeah i should try for some position like "social activities coordinator" or something lol

Definatly if you held a position.

Even if not, I'd still mention it. Just keep it brief. The fact of the matter is, it was an EC, one you probably spent a lot of time with. It speaks to who you are and what you did. It tells the Adcom you didn't spend your whole undergrad crammed in the library studying... sometimes they might arrange it so you might even get interviewed by a member of the same Sorority. This could be an ice breaker.

(this goes for Fraternities too)

Just wondering but how many guys did you sororitie girls sleep with? 8 or 9? How many blacks, asians, and hispanics did you girls ride? I am sure the adcoms are thinking the same thing

I was in a Fraternity. Does that mean I was nailing sorority girls left and right?

We don't all conform to your stereotypes... Adcom members realize that greek life isn't what you see in the movies.

It isn't?

Well there was that time my fraternity went on double-secret probation, but we got back at that dean by totally trashing this parade... it was anarchy.

I actually dated my husband long distance all through college and never cheated on him....so we don't all conform to stereotypes

haha definitely cant just be vice president of taking shots! But I think that the position gave me a little something to talk ab when I put the sorority into my AMCAS

 

[Hednej]

And I am NAIVE enough to believe that! JK...

Are you just generally jealous because you don't get laid or what?

 

[Hednej]

no, I am just saying Im not naive enough to believe what many girls say... I had a girl that was sleeping with another guy while I was... that bi*ch.... anyways, I am just trying to be REALISTIC! I know all the games that girls play ...Trust me! some of the craps that they do are REALLY fuc*ing cruel! I see how girls try to play head games with guys ALL THE TIME!!!!!!

Yeah I feel you on that one

Add me to the list of fellow Greek pre-meds. VP of my frat when I was in college, and definitely talked about it on my app. Made special mention of our philanthropic efforts, community service, and campus leadership. (And the parties ruled, but I neglected to describe those, as well as other colorful anectdotes, in my apps Ah.... the memories)
