[quote=Anonymous]My child is in AP Chem this year after taking Honors Chem last year (and having a very high A in the honors level) now in AP Chem with a notoriously hard teacher they have a C despite doing their best, without additional help. They are very frustrated and saying they wish they could switch out of the class. This isn’t even an option now, correct? I am concerned that this will affect their gpa, which they were trying to raise up. 
Besides my child asking for help, what resources can you recommend for this situation? I don’t think they have peer tutors for AP chem at their school as about only 13 kids take the class each year. Any online resources beyond khan academy? That content doesn’t seem to match what the tests are on. 
The teacher seems to pride themselves of making the course as challenging as possible based on what they shared at back to school night. But a C would be better than dropping the class now correct? I can’t imagine what classes they could be in instead since they have already taken honors chem, IB Chem? This is at a school that offers both. [/quote]
