Writing Sample Scan

Hey guys, I noticed that my LSAT writing sample scan on LSAC came out to be pretty poor quality (looks much worse than how I actually wrote). You can make out maybe 90% of the words if you read it slowly (well, at least I can).

Has anyone asked LSAC for a re-scan of their writing sample before? How long does it take them to do it, and did it come out any better?

It's ok, you're the only one who's gonna look at it anyway

I'm pretty sure that as long as you can tell that you wrote something on topic then it won't impact you at all. The conventional wisdom here is that nobody cares about your writing sample, unless possibly if you're an international student. Or if you don't do it and just draw a big, veiny dick or something awful like that.
