<p>actually my handwriting is not good so i wanted to ask if that is going to hamper my sat essay. please reply fast</p>
<p>Talk to your school’s special Ed department to see if you qualify as having dysgraphia. You can then use a laptop for the SAT essay.</p>
<p>no, as long as it is legible you are fine. My handwriting is bad too.</p>
<p>It should affect your score if the person grading your paper cannot understand what you’re writing, though. Why don’t you practice your writing style, then? If you’re a junior, you still have some days left before the June test. 
Good luck!</p>
