Is high school grade inflation part of the reason why college admissions seems more competitive?

I wish I went to a school with grade inflation. Most of my teachers teach to the AP tests (which is another issue in and of itself), so they’d rather you get a B in the class and a 5 on the AP test than an A and a 3 or 4. That’s what happened to me in Calc. I think it’s super unfair looking at all the people who seem to do well in school classes but don’t do well on the AP tests.
