Hello!

I am currently taking a foundational business course for my minor, however since it isn't a class that I entirely care about, I have unfortunately been slacking. Though we have only taken one test, I am afraid that I will end up with a B+ in this course. Would it be better to accept the B, thus lowering my GPA of 3.66, or pass/fail the course and fulfill my minor requirements? Essentially, do dental schools look unfavorably upon a P/F in a non-science course - will it hurt my chances into dental schools?

I took two out of my three Spanish courses P/F. If it's not a science course they don't care when it comes to small things like a couple P/F classes
