Great Score! Now, for your questions: yes, the score reports (including the ones that the colleges see) do show your writing multiple choice and essay subscores. And no, you should not retake it. I am sure that the 2400 is very tempting, but a) you probably will make another small mistake (and an 800 on the Math is pretty much always 0 wrong) b) you are already obviously good at math and c) you will look kind of crazy if you retake a 2360 :). There are a lot of great things to do on a saturday morning (Personally, I favor sleeping:)), but trying to improve a 760 is not one of them.

P.S. Don’t worry about your essay score. You sound kind of like me (only I am not as good in grammer) in that you don’t think that your essay score reflects your writing ability. I am sure that it doesn’t, but a 10 is a perfectly respectable score on a…flawed essay section. There will be other indications of your writing ability, and a 10 will raise no eyebrows.
