But anyway, do sororities look at your transcripts, or will I just need the upward trend mentioned in my recs? I'm an out of state student from MD, I'm still trying to figure out how to even get recs when I don't know any women in sororities...

To get recs, ask around. You'll be surprised how many women you know who are in sororities and have never mentioned it. Also, contact your local Alumnae Association.
In terms of your grades and studying, I graduated high school with a 4.5 and took only AP classes my senior year (well, and choir!). I barely scraped a 2.95 my first semester because I did exactly what AzTheta said not to. I assumed that because I had done well in high school, the same academic techniques would apply. They didn't.
College is 1,000,000 times different than high school, so heed the advice that has been given. It sounds like you've changed your study styles, but you will need to do it again in undergrad.
