Pass / No Pass and COVID-19

I’m a senior at a Midwestern non-target (think Mizzou, Nebraska, Oklahoma) and we recently received the option to convert any number of our classes this semester to P/NP, including major-specific courses that are normally ineligible.

I have a 3.8+ GPA and a FT role locked down at a regional office for a MM IB in a tier 2 city. While these stats are nothing to brag about, the idea of converting everything to P/NP and riding out the rest of the semester sounds peachy for more reasons than one.

How do you think Ad-coms would view this?

lol my profs are making exams extra hard to compensate for the risk that some students might cheat. grade deflation is also big at my school. im usually a 3.8 guy but this semester is looking like a 3.3 or 3.4
