<p>I got a twelve on the essay does that mean if a school looks at my score they see a 12 and then add my highest composite writing score (MC) to it to figure out my highest score?</p>
<p>I don't think most colleges will break it down that specifically. I think they just take your best composite writing from one sitting, including both essay and MC.</p>
<p>Congrats on a great essay score though! 12s seem pretty rare, even on here.</p>
