Retake SAT with or without essay?

I took the sat with essay and got 1440/1600, but got 8/8/8 on the essay. I know I’m going to retake the sat, but I want to know if I should bother retaking the essay portion, as I got a perfect score the last time I took it.

It would seem if the schools you are applying to super score then you would have no reason to take the essay again. If they don’t super score then you probably should.
