Could You Pass the US Citizenship Test?
#1
My boss is in the processes of becoming a US citizen. My interest in the process piqued, I did some research into what it takes and ended up on this quiz. I ended up getting a 90% (2 wrong) but actually thought I was going to do worse than I did. I probably shoulda gotten 100% but I didn't... oh well.

How am I supposed to know what form is used to become a naturalized citizen :wink:

It says that when done orally applicants aren't given choices for those questions. I definitely would have gotten more wrong had I not been given choices.

nope, that stuff doesn't interest me... so i've never bothered to learn it. why do i need to know amendment numbers? or the naturalization form? or the number of reps in congress? or... looking back at the test, really any of it? it's more useless than most useless knowledge, which i know a ton of. sit in front of jeopardy with me... i get 50% of the questions.

I didn't know who the chief justice of the supreme court was. I thought it was an easy test though. You just had to read carefully a couple of questions. But alas, I am a history/government nerd, so I guess that helps.

At least I can stay in country as opposed to Mikey.

of course you would... because it might be 49, it might be 48, heck, it might even be 40... but that's how you are.

I'm willing to bet it's half of your number. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say you could probably pull two categories but I don't believe you're getting that much consistently. You exaggerate, cause that's how you are! So there! Tongue
