Does the non-science GPA matter as much? Not cGPA, but just the non-science classes?

I ask becuase in the last 2 years I have taken only one non-science class (Psycology) in which I recieved a 4.0. However, before that, my non-science average is something like a 3.3ish from 2 years of classes.

My sGPA is a 3.99, cGPA is 3.65, non-Science GPA is 3.4ish with only 1 class in the last 2 years.
 
It's extremely difficult to answer your question because it is very subjective. Some might be turned off by the lower grades in non-science courses and/or the fact that you only took one non-science course in the last two years. Another reviewer might not care.

The only objectiveness I can contribute is the fact that the AAMC survey showed that the non-science GPA is of medium importance and the science and cumulative GPAs are of high importance.
