Since you used it to gain admission, no probs. If the VO asks, just explain and give him/her a cogent reason why you've got a low score.

Goodluck!

I apologize to the house for not posting my interview transcript last week. My bosses wan use work end me before I leave for the States. But here goes the transcript

I got to the embassy early enough at about 6:15 event though my interview was scheduled for 7:30am. Went through a lot of protocol (Men nobody told me that the protocol for US embassy plenty ohhh!) before I was eventually ushered into a massive hall where all the VOs were seated. Lest I forget at one of the points you have to remove anything that remotely relates to metal from your body like belts, earrings, keys etc. When I finally entered the waiting hall, my heart was beating faster than Usain Bolt runs the 100metres dash.I waited for almost an hour before I was eventually called by a young white man.
Vo:Hello
Me:Good Morning. (Men all the things wey I don prepare run commot from my head as my mouth open)
Vo:So why do you want to go to America?
Me:I am going to study for my Masters degree in blah blah
Vo:So how did you find out about the school?
MesadAt this point my voice began to visibly shake and I was shaking like I had malaria.Yes I was that nervous!) I did extensive research on the internet
Vo:When you say extensive what do you mean?
Me:I went to some recommended websites like USNews.com, collegeboard.org and nsa.gov
Vo:Cuts in at this point looking visibly shocked. You mean you went to the National Security Agency Website?
Me:I smiled here cos this was my ace. Yes I did. I then went on to explain to him how the NSA certifies some universities in America as centres of excellence in IT Security education
Vo:So why did you choose DSU?
Me:I chose DSU for 3 reasons. First of all it has been certified by the NSA (note that my voice shook throughout the interview but I was audible sha). Secondly the school offers a specialization which I am interested in cos it is pertinent to what I am currently doing. Thirdly I spoke with one of the professors and his resume impressed me. He has worked in over 4 banks and it would be an honour to learn from him
Vo: So who would be funding your education?
Me: I have a full scholarship from blah blah.
Vo:Can I see something like a letter?
Me:I give him my scholarship letter
Vo:Ok I see here that your scholarship covers your first year expenses
Me: Nodded in agreement like agama lizard wey fall for ground
Vo: Ok u can pick up ur visa on Monday
Me: Thank you

I quietly strolled out feeling like a bad guy whereas I actually felt like dancing alingo
