My baby started dropping today. I'm 35 weeks. I have read that labor will start within 2 - 4 weeks after the baby has dropped. How likely is it that I will make it to 40 weeks, or that she will come earlier??

Not likely - the 2-4 weeks is an average.. And 38 weeks is considered term so if she comes before 40, she's still considered a full term baby. I wouldn't worry - she'll come when ready and not before :)
