When to Cancel your Score?

Does anyone have any insight or advice on whether or not its a good idea to cancel your score? My previous undergrad advisor said not to cancel your score unless you absolutely flopped the test. I took the October LSAT and had some personal matters come up unexpectedly the day before. I don't think I realized how much it would subconsciously affect me and my score went down two points from my previous score last fall cycle. Is that a reason to cancel my score or maybe just write about my circumstances in an addendum?

I'm taking the November LSAT and plan to do better on that one.

Not sure if this will be helpful but if Georgetown has an admissions officer you could talk to, reach out to them and ask! I spoke with someone from my top school about my LSAT scores and my options for applying. They told me to take the November LSAT, wait till I get my score back and reach out to them again. I think it's a good way to make yourself known as well!

Addendums: How in depth should you go?

It might be a minor detail but I'm wondering how in depth an Addendum should be and if over explaining could help or hurt when applying with one. I'm reapplying this cycle and am unsure if it should be more detailed than my previous one. I applied last cycle with an Addendum briefly stating that I am not a good standardized test taker with proof through my ACT and LSAT scores. I said that I've worked all throughout college and therefore had less time to devote to the LSAT. I wrote that my grades are a better reflection of my hard work and what I can achieve. Should it be as simple as that?
