Lost an AP class, what should I do?

Applying to College

<p>I'm an international student pursuing study in the States, I have been reading this forum for a while now (existing topics solved my problems). Unfortunately, I couldn't find anything regarding my issue.
So, here it goes..
I'm a senior living in a small coastal town in Mexico and as nice as it is for tourism, education does not play an important role here. Fortunately, I have a couple of "real" teachers (It's common in Mexico for teachers to not have teaching degrees) who have been able to help me become "a big fish in a little pond"; I recently won a great scholarship of one of the best colleges in Latin America. Because of this I only applied two 3 colleges, 2 of which are Ivies.
That was just to understand my background. So ANYWAY:
AP classes are not common in Mexico, much less in my area, but luckily I was given the chance to take AP Calc AB and AP Psych as a junior, so I did. This year my math teacher was able to become a certified AP Calc BC teacher, making my school one of the only four in Mexico that offer it. That is only beneficial for me; I'm the only one taking the BC course in my school, with 5 more students in the class taking the AB. This worked great for me, since I was able to work closely with my teacher who's amazing and help my fellow students, as well as for the other obvious reasons.
This past semester, half of the 10th grade class failed math. The solution? Give them twice the amount of classes, but from where was the ONLY math teacher in the school get time for the classes? The AP classes, after all, it only had 6 students..
Like this, the principal decided to terminate out AP opportunity, making me, my classmates and my teacher quite upset. On Tuesday (Mexican holiday on Monday), the class has an appointment with the principal, to try to get a solution, I came up with the idea of tutoring the half of the 10th grade instead of having our teacher do it, since 3 out of the 6 of us are already tutors outside of school, giving him enough free classes to continue the course. Sadly, we were told by our AP coordinator that we should not expect much.</p>

<p>What should I do in either case? In case we succeed, should I notify the college about the situation and that I've become sort of a Teacher Assistant? And how can I tell them I'm not taking Calculus BC anymore, but not because I'm dropping out?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Lost an AP class?
You should find it!!</p>

<p>If fo any reason you are no longer able to take Calculus, e-mail the admissions office (or send a letter, but e-mail is more convenient) and explain why you are no longer taking Calculus, and what you are taking in it’s place. They will either just attach the explanation to your application, or send you some sort of guide on how to officially edit your application.</p>

<p>The thing is I wouldn’t be getting any other instead, I do the exact same course load of every other student plus the APs, would this make a difference? Thank you. What should I do if I become a Teacher Assistant? Should I let them know too?</p>

<p>Did you even read my post?
Read it again.
I don’t quite understand what you are asking about your courseload. If the class is canceled, it’s not your fault, there’s nothing you can do to change it, and you will not be looked down upon for it (as long as you take the steps mentioned in my post).</p>

<p>No, no. I did read it and I found it very helpful, thank you. I was referring to the “[…], and what you are taking in it’s place.” part of it.</p>
