anysiaCitizenship test
You answered 95% of questions correctly. Here's your rating:
0-20%: Maybe you're still thinking too much about the Old Country.
25-40%: Mmmm. Do you really want to be a citizen? This kind of performance isn't going to impress those nice immigration folks.
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.
65-80%: Hey, you may make a good citizen yet! Look at your wrong answers and a little revision should do the trick.
85-100%: Welcome to the United States! (And, truth be told, you know more about this great land than most Americans.)
I emailed feedback as requested.
Considering I had to dust off grey matter, as it's been 30 yrs since
high school history, and one I had to completely guess at, as I
wouldn't have a clue whicn INS form I would need to fill out to apply
for citizenship, I didn't do too badly.
That being said, that sort of history test doesn't mean a damned
thing. Anyone can spout facts and historical data, it's not going to
be a good measure as to who will be a good or bad candidate for
citizenship.
