Drop or rush?

No. Conversation is not what's ultimately important.
If a group is deciding between you and another sophomore, and you're both very personable, but she has better grades.... well, the decision probably wouldn't be in your favor.
Only you can say whether or not to drop or go through. Just know that if you do go through, and you get cut heavily, it's likely because of your grades. But you will never know unless you try.
Question - do you have a very hard major? Like engineering or some sort of science? They may impact how people view your GPA.
Most important - get your recs in order! At least one to every chapter, if not two. Stress how active you are on campus, and if the topic of grades comes up, be honest and tell them what you're going to do to pull up your GPA.
