Could you pass a US citizenship test?

“In order to become a US citizen, immigrants must pass the Naturalization Test. American citizenship bestows the right to vote, improves the likelihood of family members living in other countries to come and live in the US, gives eligibility for federal jobs, and can be a way to demonstrate loyalty to the US.”
Take the test at the Christian Science Monitor.

I took the test and stopped at question 28- both out of embarrassment for how many questions I got wrong, and honestly the tediousness of continuously clicking for answers and the next question. Either way, our students should have to take this test before they graduate. Like the SAT or something, this is important and I bet hardly any of us would pass.

It was very difficult to take the test the way you set it up. I couldn’t even finish it because it stopped working half way through. You should have just asked all the questions and sshown the results at the end.

I’m a naturalized citizen so I can proudly say I was able to pass the test! :-)

The citizenship test is to correctly answer at least 6 out of 10 questions chosen at random from a list of 100.

For those individuals that are bilingual or multilingual and have been in the U.S. for less than five years, the test may be difficult since the test deals with facts, reading comprehension and cultural exposure. For those us who were naturalized and have been in country for ten or more years or those of us by birthright are American citizens, we can easily pass the test unless one is illiterate.
