English, although it should be noted that the first section (Critical Reading) focuses on being able to perform Reading Comprehension (understanding what you are reading) quickly, and the Writing section focuses both on having you know how to write a "proper" essay and also asks questions about the most accurate usage of English grammar. Many colleges that use the SAT in their admission decisions do not consider the writing section (the University of California campuses are notable for considering it), but all colleges that ask for the SAT scores will use the Critical Reading score (and the Math score) in their admissions criteria--both for admissions and often for determining merit and need-based financial aid as well. For more on this you can go to many internet sites that specialize in explaining this, including both the collegeboard and collegeconfidential sites.

How much time is allowed the Critical Reading section of the SAT?

The entire test is about 4 hours with the breaks after every 3 sections or so. Since you have three sections, 1/3 of the test will be reading. If you get another reading section for your experimental section, then a bit more than 1/3 of those 4 hours. The thing is, you don't know if it is reading that you got as your experimental section (the one section of the entire test that will not be graded.) So to answer your question, roughly 80 to 100 minutes
