Should I cancel scores or not?

Took the test on saturday, got 167 in december, am shooting for somewhere in the low 170's. Test was going very well and I was finishing up with the 5th section and I realized on the 1st section I had filled in 26 bubbles and I am sure there were only 25 questions. I have checked and unfortunately this was not the experimental section. I think what must of happened was that I filled in 2 lines for one question. I dont know where in the test this occured, may have been towards the end but that may be wishful thinking. I have had someone tell me that if i get it hand scored they can correct this, but I don't know if that is actually true. Was wondering if anyone had any ideas of something to do if not I think im going to cancel.

Thanks

TL;DR: LSAC has corrected bubbling errors, but only at the handscorer's discretion.
