I didn't take the SAT either. ACT only. I was already working full time when I took the ACT, and was at the company Christmas part the night before

On a scale of 1-36 I beat my schools average by 6 points I think.

I took it in 6th grade and scored high enough to get admitted to ~95% of colleges in the US. I don't see how someone who was nearly done with high school (or in your case, well past it) couldn't manage a 20-22 on the test.

As an aside, I've gotten much dumber since 6th grade.

21 the first time, 31 the second. My lowest score was in the science portion. Maybe I should have taken that as a hint.

I went to school with The Future Overlords of The Known Universe. I thought I was an absolute dipshit, until I realized at 19 that I wasn't.

Too late.
