Is it okay if I’m not able to do Calculus BC my senior year?

Hello! I am a 11th grade student who goes to public school and is planning on applying to MIT. I have been trying to make sure that I would be able to take Calculus BC my senior year, I attempted to take PreCalc my sophomore year but my counselor didn’t let me do the advanced math class that combined Algebra 2 and PreCalc since I had just transferred to that school. I’ve been attempting to supplement this gap by trying to take PreCalc at a community college, but every time I sign up for the class I kept getting a hold on the class that I wasn’t able to clear until this summer. Since I only got to do it so late, I’d have to settle with taking Calculus AB my senior year. Will admissions hold this against me? Is there anything I can do to make this gap up? This was primarily a scheduling issue, I would’ve loved to and was pushing to take Calculus BC by the time I graduate.
(also, would it help if I told admissions that I plan on taking BC over the summer before college?)

Thank you so much!
