Question regarding SAT essay

I will be appearing for the SAT with essay next month. However I am confused about one thing- are we allowed to use abbreviations like "we're" (we are) and "it's" (it is) in the essay section? Will it be considered against me? As an Indian, we were told not to write such abbreviations in our ICSE 10th board examinations.

This website shows the rubric used to grade SAT tests. It does not discuss contractions anywhere. So I believe that as long as you use a style that fits the criteria described by the rubric, whether to use contractions is a stylistic choice you can make for yourself.
