Don’t mention the depression, but you can have your guidance counselor acknowledge your grandfather. I’m sorry.
I can tell you that adcoms will definitely notice the dispproportion in AP score versus class grade. I’m sure they understand certain teachers will grade you harder and such.
Just make sure when you apply, you minimize your weaknesses by super-stressing your strengths.
