You could do what I'm doing and just skip the military and get your pilots licence on your own-?

If you meet the requirements at http://www.afrotc.com/, you should be good.

Without some sort of standardized academic test records, you may not be competitive for a scholarship. They need to have confidence in your academic abilities, based on a reliable basis for comparison.

I'm confused about your schooling. You have passed a high school equivalency test, and taken the SAT or ACT, correct? If not, you need to do so ASAP.

You cannot be an enlisted pilot in the Air Force. All Air Force pilots are commissioned officers. That means you need a 4 year degree and a commission from the USAF Academy, Air Force ROTC, or OTS.

The ASVAB has no relevance for officer commissioning programs.
