Take the American citizenship test

[rickgonz]

This was posted a couple of years before right around the 4th of July, but worth doing again.
The real citizenship test has 100 questions, 10 of which are randomly selected by the interviewer for each applicant and questions are not normally in a multiple choice format.

75% .. not bad for being distracted and half awake at 4am! The best part is I haven't had US history in a really long time, most of this stuff is just in my head for other reasons

The sad thing is a lot of people couldn't point out where they live on a world map, better yet, if you named 5 states in the US and made them point em out on a blank map. XD

85% for me, I guess i must be slipping.

Yeah, ya know, if people really support the citizenship process being what it is, they should run similar tests on average american-born people every few years (perhaps as part of the DMv get-your-license process)

I got 85%. Does that mean I can be an honorary American?

45-60%: Not too bad, but you really need to break out the civics books again -- word is, the INS is looking for an 80 percent score.



man, i just graduated HS and i failed gov class once haha..i guess it shows

when i did my citizenship test, the interview lasted 15mins instead of the recommended 45mins. The woman asked me 3 questions only instead of the 10 she was supposed to. She liked my British accent i guess!

95%!...... I missed the number of amendments to the constitution, I selected 23 instead of 27. I've even got a copy of the constitution within reach but I resisted the urge to cheat.

Sad part is..... most of congress and certainly the president and vice president don't have a clue about what's in the constitution. It would be interesting (and sad) to see what score G.W. would get on this test.

By the way AKAWD......someone who IS a citizen of the U.S. really should not have ANY trouble with this stuff.... it's part of being an American. But the reason we are losing our liberties at such a rapid pace is that so few people know how our government is supposed to work! WAKE UP PEOPLE before it's too late!
