Essay on Retake

<p>I got a 12 on the essay in May, but overall my scores were pretty bad so I'm retaking in October. I heard that colleges recieve your essays that you wrote on the SAT; is this true, and will it be okay if I use the same two examples I used in the May examination, or will colleges frown upon this?</p>

<p>if the essay is close to the same then go for it, otherwise probably not?</p>
