What grade is typically looked at as a red flag? I may be making a B or B+ in one of psychology classes, which is worrying me - but all my other classes will most likely be an A or A-.

C-, D, F. More than 3 W's to me might be a flag.
I only have one W, my freshman year of college, Fall of 2011 in a 2.0 credit remedial chem I course (I was mistakenly placed in it, and then eventually took the 5.0 credit Chem I in Spring, received a C+, but every grade from there has been B or higher, including B+ in Orgo I lecture: 3.2 sGPA, 3.49 oGPA)
 
Just try and keep the GPA competitive. The only issue I would see would be the W and then a C+. How did Chem 2 go? D schools want 3.4 or so.

I would start working my butt off for a whole year to bring that gpa up if I were you. Try to get a 3.5 science and 3.7 overall, and you will be semi-golden. Maybe yellow?

Yeah, unfortunately, I doubt it'll go higher than a sGPA of 3.25 at the end of this semester.. with an overall of 3.50 or so.
