GPA concern

Hi everyone!
So i am a transfer student who is attending UCLA and im considering to apply to law school

however, my major concern about applying to law school is my gpa. As of now, there is a possibility that I may earn No pass on my management class which does not count towards my major. Its just an elective credit but I just want to know if law schools would look at my No pass and consider that into my gpa and lsac gpa.

Yup, most likely. That counts as 0 grade points out of however many credits it is worth.

remember as BDM stated, that the no pass is going to be the equivalent of getting an F. The law school will require transcripts from each school you attended and your overall gpa will be a combination of all schools you attended.
