Well, can you? Myself, I got 85%. Not bad, but I’m annoyed I didn’t score a perfect.
Some of the questions were a little tricky.

I got 90%. Sadly, this was not due to the strong knowledge of the workings of democracy instilled in my in my years of public education, but rather because my bedtime reading for the past two nights has been Jon Stewart’s Democracy Inaction.
I got 100% just quickly scrolling and clicking quickly through the entire test. I am not sure if I should contact INS directly Autolycus but expect a knock on your door soon, hopefully exactly two days from now. It seems like you missed out on a fireworks display a time or ten in your life.
95%, not bad. It would have been 100% if I had paid more attention to the question about the first words in The Constitution. We The People… :smack:
I got 90%. I had to make educated guesses on 3, and got two wrong.
(Fyi- Supreme Court and President during a war questions were the wrong answers. # of amendments was the guess I got right- but I was like 70% sure.)
I got 70%. Some of the numbers questions are tricky for furriners.
95% I missed the number of representatives in the house. …three hundred-something, four hundred-something, like it makes a difference…
85% with a few lucky guesses.
Damn. I read one wrong so I only got 95%.
That’s what I got too, with the same one wrong. Damn, so obvious now!
95% for me. I need to pay attention to the Supreme Court once in a while.
John G Who? :smack:

I got 100%. The easy way to remember how many people are in the House, especially in an election year, is by remembering that the number of electoral votes is equal to the number of Representatives plus the number of Senators, plus 3 votes for DC for a total of 538. 538-103=435.
Or, just maybe, I’m a nerd. That’s entirely possible too.
I got 95%, but that’s because I am no good at remembering which presidents were in office at what time. :o
I got 85%. I guessed a few. There are a lot more amendments than I thought.
What is the actual required pass mark for people seeking citizenship?
100%, woo hoo! (I made an educated guess on the chief justice and number of amendments; the rest I knew.)
95% - but the one I missed was because I read the question incorrectly.
Got 100%… but then again, even the revised version’s not that hard.
BTW, in case someone didn’t get this detail, what they do is they have a large set of potential questions by subject and by degree of difficulty, and various potential phrasings of the question, and then they assemble each edition of the test by taking a sample from that pool.
I got 100%, but the “Who was President during World War I” question was a lucky guess. I can never remember the difference between Wilson and Harding. (Even though I should have remembered that Harding died really early into his term. Whatever.)
I was also amused by the third answer to question 3:
“To whom it may concern, please be advised that we are forming a more perfect union. You have been pre-approved to apply for membership!”
95%, though I got lucky on a couple - Maine, New Hampshire? Flip a coin. Oddly enough, on the one question I got wrong my first instinct was actually the right answer (date of the writing of the Constitution, changed my answer to '76).
I hope this doesn’t mean I have to become a US citizen…
I got 90%. I got wrong how many amendments there are to your Constitution (quite a few!), and I got wrong which state was not one of the orginal states.
