1. Booyah! 96 out of 96!!

Where do I apply?

[BlueJazz]

2. 95-- What party does the President belong to? I put Democratic.

3. Missed a couple, almost quit.

That is one s-l-o-w setup!

[Orrex]

5. For real.

Worst configuration ever. It would take less time to obtain immigration amnesty than finish that 192-screen monstrosity.


Fail.

6. I missed a couple because I was getting bored and

distracted. It was slow and too easy. I like online tests that make me work a bit, even if I miss some answers.

[Paradoxical]

4. Several of those questions are "right" in a revisionist sense.

But not right in a factually accurate sense.

[Forkboy]

7. I passed the test by being born here with a gun in hand.

hey, works for the rest of us...

[Love Bug]

8. Damn! I missed the Selective Service question!

Other than that, I got 95 right.

9. I am not even going to try to take it.

My Russian next-door neighbor was applying for citizenship. I checked out the questions on her citizenship test and there was no way I could answer half the questions.

10. 94

It's a final test for a good high school Social Studies course.

I can't help but wonder how many of the flap mouths who are having hizzies about immigrates could pass this test.

11. 96 out of 96

Glad I didn't embarrass myself.

[Iggo]

12. Probably not.

There was a transplanted Polish community in my neighborhood back in the 80's. Poland --> Chicago --> Downey/Pico Rivera. A few of them were studying to become citizens and we'd sit around the bar seeing which group knew more about civics than the other: the Yanks or the Poles.

They smoked us every time.

13. I am not an American Citizen but I've lived here for a little while ...

(here being the USA)

I got 82 out of 96. I almost gave up because it seemed to take forever to get through it.

14. 96 out of 96, natch.

Helps to have been a history major in college... :patriot:

[Glassunion]

15. F'ing teabagger bullshit rw questions.

Q. During the Cold War, what was the main concern of the United States?

Not one fucking option was Regan.

[LeftishBrit]

16. 94. I had not a clue as to the filing deadline for taxes in the USA ...

in the UK it's Jan 31st, if anyone really wants to know. And I thought that 'volunteer army' means that no one has to register for selective service.

I had a few lucky guesses; but on the whole it seems relatively easy for people who have studied some American history formally (I did in secondary school), and who have contacts with the USA.

The British equivalent is more difficult and a bit 'odder': less basic history and geography, and more rather arcane bureaucratic regulations.

17. i only missed ONE !!
