You will definitely be able to get into a 4 year college. There are many colleges which are not so competitive. State schools (not the "prestigious" main one, but the ones that are more regional) will accept you because they have a mandate to. Private schools with high acceptance rates will also take you -- you have high test scores and thus will raise their average. Don't expect much in the way of financial aid though.

I think you should go to community college first. The classes and work load will probably be a little easier. Do well in community college and then you can look into going to a better school.

Yes you can still get in. You will need to take these cl assess at the college and pay for them. Been there done it. I went to a four year private catholic college.

You've really hurt yourself if you want to go to a competitive college. The coursework difficulty is a big, big factor in deciding admissions.
However, most universities have essentially open admissions so will always find somewhere to attend. if you pick it up a notch you can allways transfer later.

i dont know about the testing and the classes you took--my suggestion would be to contact the school you want to go to and speak to a councelor or the admissions office. that way you will have the best answer.

It depends where you want to get into, what you average is and what kind of extracurriculars you took.
