Well, none of us can tell you for sure, but this particular issue raises the biggest red flag to me. Sororities place a high premium on scholarship. There are many times when individual chapters set a higher bar for GPA than the minimum set for PNM's to enter recruitment.
Don't worry about feeling deficient in social skills. I was very shy in high school, and one of my goals in college was to improve my own social skills. I think this happens more often than you would think. You learn by doing, so start getting involved with college clubs and going to parties. At parties, practice walking up to friendly-looking students (male and female.) Smile, look that person in the eye and say, "Hi, I'm so-and-so, what's your name?" Then ask them conventional questions about their hometowns, major, interests, etc. to get the ball rolling. If you are at a party at someone's house, ask, "How do you know our host/hostess?"
Work hard on improving your grades, get involved, have fun, and by all means give recruitment another try if you feel up to it. Remember that some girls shine better during informal recruitment, if your school offers that option. Good luck to you!
