How much do top grad schools care about non-physics/math classes, like music or anthropology...? What would you say the importance on a scale from 1 to 10? Would a B in one of those classes hurt me?

I honestly don't think an occasional B would even hurt you in a physics or math course. A B in a non-major course? You should be completely fine.
