Should I explain my PSAT score on my aplicaitions for summer programs?
Post Body

Hello,

I am a junior applying to three sumer prgrams. The MITES, Summer Science Program, and a NASA internship. They all would like to see my PSAT, SAT, or ACT score.

However, I only have a PSAT score that I am not happy with. I took the PSAT my sophmore year, I have not gotten a chance to take another test. The reason for this is becasue I have been focusing on balancing my heavy work load, which includes 4 APs, Honor classes, and an Extracuricualr almost every day. I planned to take new tests in the later half of this year.

Should I explain this on my applications? I am worried that they will think I cannot handle an intense workload. I also plan to talk about how I managed to balance my workload in an essay that asks what challenges I have overcome.
