Take The Citizenship Test.


I scored 96/96. But they tallied me at 95/96. There is one question, if you answer correctly, it will tell you that you are wrong. I will leave that up to you to find it.

You'll see why when you take the test.

Click Quiz 2. It's the full test. Quiz one is a 9 question sampler.

I got 80 of 96. Find it hard to believe anybody could get all of them.

Re: Take The Citizenship Test.


I got "Who is the President now?" wrong, their was no Barry Sorrento choice and we don't know who he is, we know he's a liar, hangs around with racists and terrorists, but we really don't know he is or if he's even a citizen, the test is flawed.

I'm thinking sense of humor!

I got 85/96 +1 for the wrong answer.

Re: Take The Citizenship Test.


I got 70/96

I think I got the trick question wrong, but I'm not sure, I went through pretty quickly and some that I thought were right were not because I'm sure I read a couple of them wrong.

Re: Take The Citizenship Test.


Has anyone here actually taken the real citizenship test? My wife took it 2 years ago and just about anyone could pass it. There was only a few easy questions and they give you a sentence written in English and all you have to do is read it aloud. Anybody who can read and speak English and study for 5 minutes could pass the test.

I got 87/96. That quiz is messed up. It asks "Who is the current President of the US?" Answer: Obama. Then its asks "What is the political party of the current president?" Answer: Republican. WHAT???? The correct answer is Democrat not Republican.

Yeah, seriously! I got that one wrong too.

Then I'm sure it asked how long you vote for a president and I put 4 and it said I was wrong, that it was 2. Then asked the same question later but with 4 as the answer. That's one I think I must have read wrong

I knew what the right answer was so I went back and checked the test again and the test is wrong.

That is where I quit. No point in taking a test that has incorrect answers. I missed one a few questions earlier by a wrong click of the mouse.....but that one got me.
