I've never been happier about a B average

glad to see that there is appreciation in the OP. Congrats on your success this coming year, and as someone who has had some struggles in life, I understand just how difficult it can be to overcome the obstacles that you described.

I do however want to make a comment about what someone said above. About AB Calc vs. MVC. There are a plenty of high schools in this nation that don’t give opportunities to take MVC your senior year of high school, but that doesn’t mean they are underfunded or on probation. Additionally, I guarantee that some of the kids in said high schools, taking AB calc, are probably ten times smarter than the kids taking mvc. Intelligence isn’t a function of knowledge, its an indication of your ability to learn.
