US Citizenship Practice Test
The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, or USCIS, gives out the U.S. citizenship test. This exam allows applicants to become a United States citizen if they can pass it. The naturalization test is not a multiple-choice test because it is more like an interview where a USCIS officer will ask the applicants 10 questions. They must answer at least six questions correctly to pass and become an American citizen. To prepare, the USCIS gives applicants a citizenship practice test that has 20 test questions similar to the civics questions the USCIS officer might ask them.
