Recently the CIS (Citizenship and Immigration Services) had revised the exam needed to become a US citizen. . . it is much tough than I took it years ago.
You should give it a try, and see how much you know about America. The following are only a sample of the many questions immigrants will possibly be tested on.
You need 6 out of 10 to pass.
1) What do we call the first 10 amendments to the Constitution?
2) The House of Representatives has how many voting members?
3) What Cabinet-level agency advises the President on foreign policy?
4) Who is the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court now?
5) What does it mean that the U.S. Constitution is a constitution of limited powers?
6) What is the current minimum wage in the U.S.?
7) What are "inalienable rights"?
8) Name one of the writer of the Federalist Papers.
9) What territory did the United States buy from France in 1803?
10) What is the tallest mountain in the United States?
