Re: Could you pass the US naturalization test?
I got 55%.  Not a biggie since I'm not an American and I never took any North American history.  Frankly I find the whole thing to be boring.  Europe is much more interesting.

Ho, ho, ho, to the bottle I go
to heal my heart and drown my woe!
Rain may fall and wind may blow,
and many miles be still to go,
but under a tall tree I will lie!

Wheres my money Ace?

What part of "put your money where your mouth is" entails me giving you money? All it means is you put it in your mouth where it gets nice and soggy.

Of course why that ever became a popular expression makes absolutely no sense... ;)

Folks, you're talking out of your asses. Believe me, I've been to Mexico. Living homeless on the street in the US is vastly better then living in a shantytown outside of TJ. Much the same can be said of a lot of other third-world places.

Then again Mexico DOES suck. Mexico is like most third world countries, but not everywhere in the third world is like that. There actually are some places that are good to live in.

What the hell was that INS form question doing on there? Who but someone who's actually immigrating would know that?

I guess they want all applicants to know which form they're supposed to fill out, so they don't start filling out the welfare forms before being granted citizenship.

Re: Could you pass the US naturalization test?
But the questions on that test were specifically selected for people who are already citizens.

Re: Could you pass the US naturalization test?
95%. I got the "Who selects the Supreme Court justices?" question wrong. I knew they had to be confirmed by the Senate but apparently that's not the answer they wanted.

I'm a US citizen, but I spent most of my pre-university education (4th through 12th grades) in international schools over in East Asia. I only needed to have one course in US history to know all that.

The actual test itself is apparently not that hard to pass. My grandparents passed it a few months ago, and they can barely put together a single sentence in English (they speak Mandarin Chinese), and never had a single minute of US history instruction beyond reading the sample questions.

I payed attention in high school history classes. Oh noes.

Same here (score and opinion-wise).

Exactly. My grandparents come over from Eastern Europe in the years following World War II, and they seemed to do just fine with becoming citizens.

95%, but only because I had no idea on the INS question


50%


who the hell wants to be an american apart from people too poor to realise that once you're in it isnt much better than when you were in your country?


dude, have u ever even been to America?
no. i plan to come to america, but not to the USA. Canada perhaps.

Alright, just so you know: America implies USA, North America means USA, Canada, Mexico, and some of the Caribbean nations. It's almost the same as interchanging Britain and England.

You answered 45% of questions correctly.


If this was a actual test I would have deliberately answered everything wrong. (or would not come in the fist place) Who wants to live in the U S of A anyway?

People who don't want to live on the war-torn, poverty-ridden half of Europe, perhaps?
