Pass fail a B?

Got a B in a class outside my major (and irrelevant to finance) because I didn't try. If I pass/fail it, my gpa is 3.92; if not, 3.87. What do you think is better for business school applications? I am interested in going to bschool after a few years postgrad, but I have next to zero idea of what really matters in the application process. Thanks!!!

Pass fail it and blame on COVID, what I did.

I have no regrets about it but it probably doesn’t look the best for B school.
