50/50. The wording in one question that is supposed to represent "free exercise" of one's religion is very poor.

50/50, but one of the questions has a wrong answer as "right".


22
What is the economic system in the United States?

communist economy
socialist economy
none of these answers
capitalist economy

The correct answer is fascism, but the government wants new citizens to think they emigrated to a capitalist country.

Saw that. "Free exercise" was changed to "freedom of worship".  Very poor.

I would have gone with "Oligarchy, with limited Capitalist features" myself...

50/50

Some of my coworkers took this test on Facebook and scored in the high 30/low 40 range.  Kinda pitiful.

Not really, I would have to study for one as so much has changed in my life time .

I just thank heaven I do not have to pass a test of the Irish history that goes back 600 years with all the wars and rulers, treason, and up to today the monkey business going on.

49/50.  I can't believe this is really a citizenship test. Children should know the answers to at least half of the questions.

A few years ago, I worked with a guy from Mexico who was studying to get his citizenship test.  None of my coworkers at the time knew why there were thirteen stripes on the flag.

It was sad.

48/50 but one of the wrong ones I accidentally hit the wrong answer with my fat fingers.  I gotthe Federalist Paperswrong.  I thought it was John Adams when it was James Madison
