No test score (SAT/ACT) for MBB

Hi, I'm interested in applying to MBB consulting. The only problem is that they ask for test scores, and I wasn't able to take the SAT/ACT due to COVID. I am a non-diversity undergraduate at a target school, kind of concerned. Should I study and take one during the summer or just explain my situation when the application cycle comes along? Worried I'll get dinged...

Thanks for the help!
