I've lived here from birth and got 8 correct and probably genuinely only knew 4 of those answers, the others were lucky guesses.
It's almost like they want people to fail if those are real questions 🤔
Aussie citizenship test (official practice version) linked below:
Got my citizenship a couple of months ago, since then we've had droughts, bushfires, giant funnel-web spiders, hailstones the size of golf balls, and now pestilence..... still rather be here than Borisland.
11
And I care not one jot.
Can I skip the test and just relocate to somewhere with some nice biking and sailing and be done with it?
Well I’m out too - 14/24 though I’ll admit the majority of them were lucky guesses.
Just as well we buggered off last year...
I don’t know how I feel about these kind of tests. On one hand it is good to educate yourself on the history of the place you’re living; but on the other it’s pretty unfair to expect people to go and study history that many, if not most, citizens of said place wouldn’t have a clue about.
Hmm same sorry score here 12/24.
Didn’t know we clebrated Vaisakhi Thou 🙂
This smells like another of those outsourced from the government to their buddies money making scam.
I’m really not sure knowing the answers to any of it has any Tangible benefit.
Absolutely no mention of monty python or the two world wars we single handily won 🙂
There should be questions about passive aggression, queuing, rosy tinted reminiscing about war, the good old days and respecting your elders even when they're arse holes.
Studying for the test will both show commitment and educate a person about the UK.
Well, it will apart from the questions that are wrong.

They are not "wrong", they are the answers the government has decided best represents it's narrative.
If the study guide say's the Brexit Bonus is £250M then that is the correct answer for the purpose of the test.
Hence it perfectly educates someone for living in the UK. Obviously Sajid Javid would fail if he kept insisting it's not £250M... as that is not the answer required or published on the side of a bus.
Wow... 13/24 on the first test.
20/24 on another test.
Questions and answers don't seem that relevant to the majority of people. Sikh and hindu festivals?
When was Giants Causeway created?
When did the first agriculturalists arrive in UK?
I had to do the German citizenship test which I remember being somewhat more relevant than the UK test.
Haha.... Just got 20/20 on the Aussie test.
There's an example of a test that is relevant to the country and its laws.

The UK test is more relevant to the UK today though....
It's a test in being able to answer with what the government has determined is the correct answer, even when it's technically incorrect.
Orwellian.
And they even make the spouses of British citizens do it, after putting them through 1 2k Visa to get married, 1 2k FLR M visa, a second 2k FLR M visa - followed by a 3.5k ILR visa after 5 years. At each stage they ask you for letters, holiday photos, private correspondence, a reason why you can’t live in your souses country, bank statements (which if you print, you have to get signed by the bank but not before 28 days before your visa application).
You get anything wrong? Pay again or **** off home.
The people who push for this shit genuinely think all the brown people are out to take everything off them.
We also have two tier citizenship in this country, if you earn 18k and above - you have the right to apply to have your spouse live in this country with you. If not, you’re an unworthy sub-citizen and should **** off and die whilst we take your benefits off you for the bantz.
