I only got 30%

25-40%: Mmmm. Do you really want to be a citizen? This kind of performance isn't going to impress those nice immigration folks.

You answered 15% of questions correctly. Here's your rating:
0-20%: Maybe you're still thinking too much about the Old Country -- and that's where you should probably be.

90%. Missed the one about the INS form, and the one about the original states. Does that mean I have to go retake my high school history classes?

25-40%: Mmmm. Do you really want to be a citizen? This kind of performance isn't going to impress those nice immigration folks.

45-60%: Not too bad, but you really need to break out the civics books again -- word is, the INS is looking for an 80 percent score.

65-80%: Hey, you may make a good citizen yet! Look at your wrong answers and a little revision should do the trick.

85-100%: Welcome to the United States! (And, truth be told, you know more about this great land than most Americans.)

- never been to the us before! :d

I missed 5 and 8... not too bad, though I should know 8 (I've missed similar questions way too often)
