Impact of P/F on the Future

I was curious to see what people think about how pass/failing classes will affect student's chances at an M15 MBA program. Personally hadn't used p/f until this semester where I used it for a few classes (3/6 classes) due to recruiting/COVID issues and retained a 3.9+ from a target school. Will one semester of pass/fail really have a huge impact on your chances at a top MBA with the contingency you fit other criteria (Target/3.9+/BB IB)?
