hey, did u check if the local community college expects you to pay for classes? (mine waives fees for K-12 students... otherwise there is no way I would have been able to go)
I never went to a sat prep class either, just checked out a prep book from the library three weeks before the test
AP tests were too expensive and I had no costly extracurriculars, and I worked part-time
basically same situation as you ( I even homeschooled partly because transportation to the nearest "good" public school was expensive)
I got into my dream school(MIT) on full ride and my parents didn't have to pay a (figurative) cent.
it can be done
