myboysnme - not a snob at all and you made a very good point. I didn't think about the language barrier issue. I get it now after your comment and Country Ham's explanation of the test. Thanks! ETA: 46/50 for me

Yes, there were a couple of lucky guesses for me too using the process of elimination on some of them. I'll be honest, I might not have done so well on a couple if I was asked the questions orally!

I got 49 out of 50. I am a Canadian, so I guess that that is okay.

I got 50/50 but I'm a history and politics buff.
I'm impressed with our British and Canadian peas who got so many right. Sadly, I doubt us Americans would do so well on civics tests about your countries.

I missed 4, one because I read the question wrong. Not bad considering how little of that stuff I've retained over the years. I had one lucky guess.

On the one I got wrong, the question was asking what are the responsibilities of a U.S. Citizen. I clicked on "disobey the laws of the land" by accident!

Dali, that's really good! I wouldn't do well on a civics test of another country. You must be very smart. Great job!

Well, I got 8 out of 10 on the British test, and 60% of Ontario, Canada and half of those were guesses. Shame on me.
I did a bit better on the British test because I lived in England for a year....

I didn't do so well on the Canadian one either. Ha ha...I got God save the Queen and the Oh Canada the wrong way round That'll teach me to not speed read and miss the name Royal! I've never heard of Nunavut! and the other two was the name of the Leader of responsible government in 1849 and the opposition leader of Ontario. So not too bad I suppose.

I got 50/50. The one I struggled with was the Constitutional Convention - I wondered if it was a trick question.

I got 5 wrong. Not bad for a former Canadian who knows very little about US History (and has no interest in learning it at this time).
ETA: I took my US Citizenship test a couple of years ago and got all the answers correct.

I got them all right. But I taught social studies for 10 years, so I'd better get them right! I challenged my brother, who is currently a social studies teacher & has Praxis certification in it.......he got 46/50! I did better than he did!!! I got 48/50!!!

I'm not taking it! I was great in school, and as an adult, I even enjoy reading some history and historical fiction. However, my civics-related education was mediocre and I didn't enjoy it in the least, so I'm afraid to see how poorly I'd probably do...

OK, I gave in and took it. I got 48/50, and one of those was an oops in hitting the wrong button. Whew, I can stay here!
