My SAT Score is 1780. Can I go to average major universities?
Anyway, I passed the GED last year. Then, I took the SAT.
SAT Scores were
CR 580
M 650
CW 550
Now, the average SAT scores of applicants that are accepted by the Temple University are
CR 500 ~ 600
M 500 ~ 600
CW N/A
Obviously, I did exceed the average scores, but I have big minus points
1. High school drop out boy
2. GED graduate
Although I have almost no extracurriculars, I will start a volunteering and get at least two recommendations (not strong).
What are my chances to be accepted by average major universities like Temple? (can be worse, and I’m fine as long as it isn’t a community college)
Thank you for reading my personal worries.

However, it would be best for you to go to a community college for two years and complete your general education requirements, then transfer to a university. Community college it not a bad thing; many people do it because they messed up in the past or because they want to save money.
I’m not sure why you’re so opposed to community colleges. If you did that well on the SAT, you’re obviously reasonably smart, but you have a high school record which won’t indicate that. You could probably go to a CC, do well, and transfer into Temple easily, or even Penn State or some other more prestigious university.
