The following is straight from the UC website. Alot of people on here still think that UCs care about +/- on high school grades. So I went online to prove that you can earn a C- in your foreign language courses to satisfy the IGETC. Scroll down to 9.3 on the link to see the following:

9.3 Language Other Than English High School Grade Exception
For the UC Language Other Than English requirement, Area 6A, the University of
California does not count “minus” or “plus” grades for high school coursework, only the
whole grade is used. In other words, a “C-” grade is counted as a “C”.

Example: A student receiving “C-” grades in high school Spanish 1 and 2 meets
the language proficiency requirement.
