my 2 cents : Gmat makers do not like if with can.
And if "could" indicates possibility, can be used with would

my answer is E
The more you suffer before the test, the less you will do so in the test! :)

My inputs-
We need to understand that "could" comes from CAN and "would" comes from WILL
So where we have a factor of uncertainity we use could. But, where we have conditional, we use would.

In this the scientist are sure that it won't b a planet wide destruction BUT it could do tremendous damage on the part where it strikes !!

'Would' and 'Could' are never used in an 'If' clause. 'If' in itself specifies conditionality.

Here we are talking about the HYPOTHETICAL situation.
So we need to use the IF IT WERE construction.

I hope it is clear
Thanks
