My school does not do high school transcripts, most colleges I’ve contacted say that my counsellor just needs to send in a letter stating why - there’s nothing I can do about the transcript now but will this hurt my chances?

Also, I sent in the wrong college essay on my Common App. It was an alright essay, but the one I meant to send in was better. Deadlines were a month ago, should I bother sending in the right one now or should I just forget it? Will they think I was just buying time to write a new one?
