Can you pass the UK citizenship test?

Well I just tried the link but every time I answer the first question it tells me I've passed with 100% don't know how that happens

Yes the same thing happened to me as well.

We don't have to pass it though, do we?

If we wanted to go and settle in another country, perhaps we'd be required to know similar facts about it before being accepted as a permanent resident.

Be nice to know if we qualify though Ana

Same here......got 20/20 just for clicking on the link!

Sorry try this link

If you click on the picture at the top left of the page it will start the quiz.
I only got 12 but as vp says you need to be a history buff.

The one with the union jack.

15/20 - lucky guesses for a few!

Well I am surprised I got 70% does that give me a pass or not.

Blimey - 80%. Shows how good I am at guessing!

16 but not impressed that they asked about driving licenses !!

80% for me!

But half these questions are nonsense. It is important that a new citizen knows that the Magna Carta exited and its implications for living in Britain, but who cares which king was around at the time? These questions mostly demand a knowledge of history - surely citizenship tests should concentrate on the fundamentals of living in Britain? - what is important today.

13/20 - not very good.

Whilst, as a person born here, I feel I should have known more of the answers, I really don't see the need for people to know them in order to become a British citizen. I would have thought it much more useful to know about custom and practice, what is and isn't generally thought to be acceptable behaviour, etc., rather than which building has a particular type of architecture.

Exactly.

Agree

I got14.Pathetic !Should have done better.

Me too. 100% of one question??

17/20 so quite pleased but felt some of the questions a bit irrelevant

16 - but like most of you I think it is a ridiculous test. Remembering the order of the wives of Henry VIII does not make you "British".

What a completely stupid collection of questions! Henry VIII's sixth wife? I knew the answer but cannot see the slightest relevance of the question. Gothic or neo Gothic architecture? Ditto. And so on…

14/20 The questions seem ridiculously irrelevent to anything much. If you don't happen to watch soaps you are stuffed.

Agree that most of these questions are irrelevant to citizenship! Why? They should be about every day living surely. Very English centred. Wales and Scotland got 1 question each and NI none. And why out of the blue was there 1 question about Hinduism and none about any other of the many religions in U.K.?

I got 75% which I suppose isn't bad for someone who isn't English! A few were lucky guesses.

17/20. And two of the wrong ones, I should have known better.
