Could You Pass US Citizenship Test?

Post by DrDonkeyLove »

Seems apropos to the holiday.
Sample Citizenship Test

Donkeys love America so I got 100% of coarse, but I must confess that there were a couple of educated guesses that went my way.

I got 1 wrong.

Had a couple of good guesses, and the one I bunged was one everyone should know.

One wrong. Should have had it, I second-guessed myself.

I screwed up on Vermont and got a couple of guesses right.

How did I screw up on Vermont?

I'm all for having people pass a citizen's test before being able to vote. Never fly due to the right to vote.

Passed with a 70%

Doesn't seem like a terribly tough test for an immigrant given time to prepare for it.

I have a former colleague who used to prep immigrants for their citizenship test. She said that she saw a bunch pass who couldn't speak English nor comprehend what was behind nearly any question being asked.
