I disagree with this.
As an active undergrad, I know damn well that EVERY organization, fraternities and sororities, top of the totem pole to bottom of the totem pole, have young members that have yet to learn how to properly recruit potential rushees. This is more common among fraternities especially.
I wouldn't be surprised if the brother who told the OP he was a "shoo in" was a newer brother that has no idea how to recruit or what to say/what not to say.
And there are always stand-out guys that would be a shoo in for whichever fraternity they choose, just as there are stand-out girls who always have a full schedule during sorority rush. Not saying this is the case with the OP, but it very well may be.
But I agree with lucgreek, don't be cocky or overly confident. There are some chapters where a single vote can blackball you and you don't want to ruin your chances by being a cocky douchebag.
