3.5 GPA or Business minor?

Hey everyone. I'm a senior majoring in Economics with a business minor and am finishing my last semester of undergrad. I won't be able to make an A in one of my business minor courses meaning my graduating GPA will be below a 3.5. However, if I drop the course (consequently dropping my minor), I will graduate with a 3.5. What do you all recommend I do?

Continue the course to end under a 3.50 GPA or drop the minor?

I really appreciate any advice, thank you.
