Worst case scenario of retaking ACT w/ very little prep?

<p>So I had the thing happen to me where I got obscenely busy with school/ECs and procrastinated studying for the ACT – pretty much entirely. I’m scheduled to take it tomorrow, and I see little to no chance of me improving on my 30. What is the absolute worst case scenario if I was to, say, get a 27? Is there any downside aside from just wasting my time and money? Colleges never have to see this score, yes?</p>

<p>Yeah, I’m a little paranoid. It’s what I do.</p>

<p>If you don’t send it, they won’t see it.</p>
