i know we must not take any of our BCPM courses pass/fail but what about something like an English class? (i took two of them for grades but need a third to finish out the one year requirement of English for medical school and don't feel like killing myself for an "A" when I might be missing class time for interviews.) Obviously my "P" would not show up until after I am (hopefully) accepted somewhere anyway but I don't want to jeopardize my chances. Anyone?

They usually don't worry about it if your GPA is high enough. However, keep in mind that a large portion of the schools require 1 year of English and since it's a requirement, they want to see letter grades for these classes. The same goes for AP and CLEP courses.
