Is English your second language? There are a few oddities in your typing i was putting down to phone typing or auto correct until you mentioned religion. If you do have accented English, an obvious religion and your grades dropped it is understandable you wouldn't be recommemded. I would approach the teacher, point out your testing results and ask what you would need to do to prove readiness. Also check whether you can switch classes during tthe year.
Eta. Accent has no bearing on ability or performance (I have had plenty of profwssira for whom English was their second/thrird/eighth language) but some people don't look past the surface.
