How does my background affect my college admission chances?

Thanks for reading and showing interest in my situation. I am planning on taking the SAT again. I live in Massachusetts and I would like to get as many scholarships as I could possibly get, because my family can’t afford to pay college. I am trying to do dual enrollment at UMass Dartmouth so I can take computer engineering during my senior year.

I would have to pay to take AP Physics again… Does it help if I take it again since it is my senior year?

I am so mad I didn’t pass the exam but I knew I didn’t have a chance. My school is a level 4 school and our Physics teacher (same for regular and AP Physics) wasn’t good and it was his first year teaching AP. Everyone that I’ve talked to in that class had a 1 on the exam, except one student who got a 2 ( she was accepted to Harvard and had 5’s on all her other five AP Classes). I know it is bad comparing yourself to others but what were my chances of actually passing the exam?
