It varies considerably how much certain colleges weigh the writing subscore. Some weigh it equally to critical reading and math, while others barely consider it at all. You can try asking admissions representatives from those schools about how heavily they weigh this score. However, while some schools may not care much about the writing test, no schools penalize strong scores on the writing, so it's a good idea to prepare for the test as though every school wants strong writing scores.
