A new set of SAT Reading & Writing practice questions — COE: Cause-and-Effect Practice Set 1 — has been added to both the SAT Reading & Writing Mastery course and the Score Accelerator program.

This set features 5 mock SAT Command of Evidence questions focused on cause-and-effect claims, ranging from straightforward to challenging. The items in the set are modeled on real SAT COE questions and feature common complicating factors like compound claims, causal chains, indirect reference, and "weaken" prompts. Two of the five questions include graphs.

Where to Find It

Navigate to Section 5 on Command of Evidence. The practice set is linked in Unit 5.7. Before doing the practice questions, make sure you're familiar with the COE Cause-and-Effect strategies taught in Unit 5.6.

After You Finish

Your results and detailed answer explanations for all questions will be automatically emailed to you. Every explanation walks through the full ICE Method (Identify, Convert, Eliminate) step by step, showing exactly how to convert a cause-and-effect claim into a comparison and apply the 3-Round Elimination Process. Read them all — even for questions you got right. The strategic breakdowns will sharpen your skills for test day.

Good luck!
