It doesn't seem like your GPA will have much affect on your income/position/opportunities given your major. (I could easily be wrong).

If the reference thing is an option do it.

I completely blew off my physics labs. They were 1 credit hour each, and lab was 4 hours and it took another 4 hours a week to write the report. By getting 3 Cs instead of 3 As (was a 3 course sequence), I lowered my accume by 0.03 points tops.

I would never have done this when I was in undergrad (because of effort/return). When I was in gradschool I would have kept up with the work as I went a long, thus it would have been easy to finish (because I cared about learning as much as possible and doing a good job).
idk about the American education system
