Could you pass a U.S. citizenship test?

MSN has a neat little civics quiz created using questions from the INS pool of 100 used for citizenship interviews. You’re getting off a little easier than imigrants in that this is multiple choice. The real thing is an oral exam, and the interviewer doesn’t have to stick to the 100 questions in the pool. Anyway, I got a 90% without cheating – an one of the questions is specific to people seeking entrence to the country, so it’s not exactly fair, but if it were given orally I probably would have scored somewhere around a 75. I made the mistake of not trusting my first instinct on #8, and on #19 I dodn’t know it because I’ve never had to apply for naturalization in this country having been born her and all. #18 is tricky because of one word. Change it and the question has a different answer – no, the word is not ‘war’.

Comments are open if anyone feels like posting their score.
