Senior Year: taking an elective Pass/Fail?

I'm in my senior year, one more semester to go, and I'll be applying to dental school this summer. Right now I'm taking 20 credits, two of my classes are electives that I only need because I'm two short in the number of classes I need to graduate. One of them is an intro course to Anthro and I was thinking of making it a pass/fail course.

Would it look bad though if I do this? I already have a W from sophomore year but my gpa is a 3.7 and I think all else looks good.

I wanted to make it a p/f because of the number of sci classes I'm taking and I'm also working two part-time jobs. Good or bad idea?

I don't think it would be a problem. Your electives probably won't count toward your science GPA and your current GPA of 3.7 is solid. Change it to pass/fail definitely wouldn't hurt.

Most of the people I've talked to said about the same so I guess I'll do that. Thank you for your reply 😀
