Regarding your GPA in your upper classes(junior/senior), the answer is yes. Graduate school will look at your final 2 years as well as your CGPA. If you have an upward trend (Which you do), as well as a good major GPA in your chosen field (Which you do), I don’t
think your second major GPA will affect their decision. More importantly though, you need to get stellar letters of recommendation. From my personal experience its your LOR’s that carry almost as much weight as your GPA.
