@Calgirl, thanks for the response! I have decided to look at the situation in the "cup half full" perspective. I get more a chance to boost my ACT score, and more time working on the essays. Also, my mid-year report will boost my application a bit.
Meanwhile, good luck to all of you SCEA CC'ers! Though I'm doing regular, I may still lurk around this thread to be nosey lol (
