Reading & Writing — What You'll Face

54 questions in 64 minutes across two 32-minute modules.

Question Types:

1. Craft and Structure — vocabulary in context, text purpose, text structure

2. Information and Ideas — central ideas, details, inferences, evidence

3. Standard English Conventions — grammar, punctuation, sentence structure

4. Expression of Ideas — transitions, synthesis, rhetorical choices

Key difference from old SAT: Short passages (1–2 paragraphs per question). No more 5-page reading comprehension marathons.

Strategy: Read the question FIRST, then the passage. You're hunting for specific information, not absorbing literature.
