I am in my spring semester of my junior year hoping to apply to dental school this summer. I am a Biology/Pre-Dental major with very borderline grades (GPA-3.4 sGPA-3.1)...I was told by my advisor if I take one more chemistry class I could also graduate with a chemistry minor. Do you think having a chemistry minor with a biology major would help my chances of getting into dental school?...I already have a loaded schedule my for my upcoming senior year and I am not sure what to do or how much a chemistry minor would help my chances with dental school

any feedback is appreciated

I don't think it will make a huge difference...lots of applicants who are biology majors are typically automatically chemistry minors. What is your minor now?

It won't hurt. An A in an upper level science class might help. If you get a C in that class just to get the minor, this will hurt you.
