This is a word salad. OP was not asking for grade adjustment.

Now, please tell us what OP was asking for? A C + is a C + in a course.  Who cares if it is in a math or basket weaving course?  Rigor sometimes is in the eye of the beholder.  Some genius’ struggle with AP basket weaving. [/quote]

Someone else - the confused poster who claims the equivalent of ap precalc is an anomaly for private school HE juniors - also said:

OP please know that there are people in the private school universe who understand your dilemma and are pulling for your kid. We get it. Understand that very few kids are taking this class as a junior. Ask me how I know? [b]I would set up an appointment with point of contact for your grade. Do not push this aside.[/b] You should be direct and say the facts-know how many kids take this class and bring up you are concerned that this will be lost in the mix. [b]Put this on the school as to how they will figure this out. Work out a plan together on how to overcome this? [/b]Maybe it is an online class? Maybe it is taking over this summer? Maybe it is tutoring to make sure he rocks BC. [b]The most important thing is respectfully make a point that if your kid was in public this would be a B plus because they get a point for AP on top of grade. Make sure you are all on same page. It is better to figure this out now than wait until senior year.[/b] If you are talking about a kid with mostly As and this is an anomaly then this should be used as an asset for applications. Understand that if you do not have this sort of curriculum you will not get advice on DCUM that will be helpful. Good luck and tell you kid he is awesome!!

What does she think the school will do when she says to make the school figure out a solution?
