Do you have what it takes to pass the U.S. citizenship exam? Test your knowledge
Before reciting the oath of allegiance before a judge, aspiring U.S. citizens must pass an oral civics test. The test includes up to 10 questions, randomly selected from a pool of 100. Applicants must answer at least six correctly to move forward.
It covers everything from the Constitution to the Civil War, from naming elected officials to explaining the rule of law. For many applicants, the questions become a daily companion, reviewed on flashcards during lunch breaks, practiced with children at bedtime or memorized with the help of lyrics from the Broadway musical "Hamilton."
Many report that their U.S.-born spouses sometimes struggle with the questions. Think you can pass? Test your knowledge below.
