Seconding this. The former Writing section was not just the essay: it also had multiple-choice questions. Effectively, the essay itself was worth between 100 and 200 points, and the multiple-choice made up the rest.

That’s the second version of the writing section. I’m talking the one given in 2005 which was different.

The post I cited is from 2015, which still describes a 3-section SAT. As far as I know, the SAT format remained the same from 2005 until March 2016.
