U.S. Citizenship Quiz

One in three Americans would fail the US citizenship test given to Immigrants applying to become citizens of the United States.

Immigrants who want to become U.S. citizens need to pass a civics test asking detailed questions about our government and history.  39 out of 40 immigrants get at least six questions right on the 10-question test, which is a passing score.

People born in America become citizens without taking a test . . . which is good because one in three natural-born Americans FAILED the test in a survey by Xavier University.  Here are 5 of the questions that gave Americans the most trouble – take the quiz and see how you do.
