About This Quiz

Sisterhood, communication, honesty and service to others. These are some of the core values that many sororities are known for. The members of such sororities also help to make their community (and the world) a better place from their participation in fundraisers, charities and social events. But before one can join the ranks of a sorority house, they must first endure a few days of networking with various members. This is known as RUSH week (or recruitment week), and it's a yearly event where a person can decide which type of sorority house is right for them.

While it certainly depends on the organization, RUSH week typically involves the following: talking to different people about who you are, making a speech and stressing over what types of cute outfits to wear (because it's not just about what you say but how you dress!). First impressions are everything during this week. Remember: you only have around five minutes to make someone think "yay" or "nay" about you. But overall, this recruitment week is an enjoyable and memorable experience where different people can showcase their inner personality. So if you want to relive your past RUSH experiences, then it's time to take this sorority quiz now!
