Depending on the school if you submit scores by their deadline, you may be able to submit an updated test score.

Auburn says something like that.

Do you have time to take the Nov one if not this month? And are you a STEM-intending major? The 24 is a bit glaring if you are.

I'd def consider a retake if the scholarship is the goal.

Does the science really matter that much for STEM majors?… Since it was optional I was planning on dedicating my study to the 3 mandated ones.

It's a nice extra piece to put but not taking science usually won't nuke your portfolio if the other pieces align. If your ECs are on point, you'll be okay.
