I’m a biology major who is currently taking a lower-div psychology course to fulfill one of my general education / breadth requirements. However, I slacked off as I was putting so much of my focus on ochem and my bio courses and I’m afraid that I’ll get a lowish B in this psych class. I’d rather make this psych class pass/fail instead of it lowering my overall GPA. Is this okay, or will dental schools look down upon that? Thank you so much.
 
Psychology is usually a pre-req for some schools (like UCLA), so they'd need a grade for it. I would not P/F it. And also, Psychology is a science course, so it would count toward your overall and science GPAs. I'd try to do everything you can to get a good grade.
