I am a very confused young man.
I work 40 to 50 hours a week as a manager at a department store.
I have about $6000 saved up (was more but had to pay for my fathers cremation and funeral)
I missed a little over 180 days of school when I was in highschool because I was taking care of my father
I failed 3 classes (due to the fact I didn't do any of my make up work)
I got a 1420 score on my SAT but I forgot to study or bring a calculator or do any preparation before it.
I don't know what to do, I want to study math and get a PhD in it honestly because I enjoy it very much and study it on my own when I can find motivation and time to do so.
Do I retake the SAT and hope for a higher score? I think my GPA in highschool was 2.0 to 2.5
I am currently enrolling to start an associates degree in engineering at a community college cause I figure its hopeless to go to a real university with how much school I missed and all that.
atleast I can take my family out to dinner for christmas and can eat everyday

If I was you then I would just, right now, try to get in a state school. Even to one that has no competition and all. Just do it.
If no one will take you then go to a CC, pass some traditional classes every math major has to take like calc and linear algebra with As so that your GPA gits gud and then apply to state schools again.
Don't let your dreams be memes.

Just do your best in the CC and apply to a 4 year when it's time to get your associates. Most colleges won't care about your lack of SAT scores if you have CC credit.
If you want to go to a private, it may be different, but more of them are dropping the SAT requirement for transfers. At least that was the case when I was transferring.

Just go to a community college. I got about a 2.5 in high school myself. Went to community college, got a 3.8. Universities didn't give a shit (or at least didn't seem to) when I applied for 4 year programs.
You're fine. Nobody will care.

Universities look at the grades of the highest education you're willing to offer them. If you do community college then they'll look at those grades rather than the SAT and high school GPA.
Also generally universities couldn't give a shit about SAT score unless they're almost maxed out when it comes to spaces or is a really high tier university.
Get roughly a B- to B+ GPA in CC and you'll be fine.
