The November 2025 US Digital SAT (T11) has no answer key you can trust. The circulating key file mixes multiple forms into one column and can't be matched to individual questions. What it does have is a paper trail: TTA tutors worked through more than a dozen individual reading questions from that sitting as students reported them, module by module, in the weeks right after. This page pulls those write-ups together by domain and shows what they have in common.

This page covers the two domains that guide only touches briefly: Craft and Structure (how a sentence or a passage is built) and the harder end of Information and Ideas (data tables and logical inference). If you haven't read the main guide yet, start there for the module structure and the adaptive branch; come here for the reading-logic questions.
Craft and Structure: what a sentence does, not just what it says
Two November 2025 questions tested this domain directly, and both trip up students the same way: they answer based on what a sentence or passage says instead of what job it is doing.
- "Function of a sentence" questions from the hard module: a 3-step method for naming a sentence's role in the paragraph's argument.
- "Relationship between two texts" questions: a 4-step method for synthesis questions that put two short passages side by side.
Information and Ideas: data tables and logical completion did the heavy lifting
Five separate write-ups came out of this sitting's data and inference questions, more than any other Information and Ideas subtype. Two used data tables, three used a logical-completion setup dressed up as a science experiment.

- The pineapple soil treatment data table: a "filter first" method for eliminating invalid rows before comparing numbers.
- The New Year's resolution data question: the same filter-first logic applied to a survey-style table.
- The duckweed zinc experiment: tracing a hypothesis through to its logical conclusion without needing outside science knowledge.
- The hummingbird mate-selection question: the same hypothesis-to-conclusion method applied to a behavioral study.
- The Mohol bushbabies passage: a general reading-logic method for a dense field-study excerpt.
Central claims and what the text is doing
- An "illustrates the claim" question built around a passage referencing Toni Morrison's work, matching a specific example to the general claim it's meant to support.
- A "what does the text suggest" question: connecting the exact wording of a sentence to what can be reasonably inferred from it, without overreaching past what the passage states.
Both question types fail the same way when students guess:
Point to the exact words that justify your answer before you commit to it.
Two general "hard question" walkthroughs
Two more posts from this sitting don't fit neatly into one domain but are useful as a broader method: a hard logical-completion question and a hard science-passage question, both broken down step by step: isolate the rule being tested, find the clue words, explain why the trap answers fail before confirming the right one.
Function asks what job the sentence performs in the argument around it. Inference asks what you can reasonably conclude from what's stated, without adding anything the passage doesn't support. One is about structure, the other is about extension. The trap on both is going further than the text actually lets you go.
Recall set
- Before answering a "relationship between two texts" question, what should you do to each text first?
- On a data table question, what should you read before you touch the numbers?
- What are the two steps in a logical-completion science question, before you write the missing sentence?
- What's the most common way students get an "illustrates the claim" question wrong?
