My overall stats (before averaging senior year): 3.4GPA and 1320 (1600) SAT. I finally pulled it together this past semester, however my English teacher is killing me.

My mid- year transcript is 6A’s and 1 C+ (AP English). Should I send a letter to colleges addressing the C? My AP English teacher is ridiculous, last year she gave no A’s; this past semester she gave 1 A. Compared to the other AP English teacher at my school her class averages are significantly lower and the grade distribution is very much skewed. My AP teacher 15 percent As and Bs; the other AP teacher 90 percent As and Bs.

Should I address this issue or will it sound like whining? Any and all thoughts are appreciated?
