I had my interview today at 10am. I got there at 9:30, got called in by really nice lady little before 10am. I swore in and we went through my N-400 real quick. She also checked all supporting documents I already sent with application.

Got asked 6 questions, wrote down on a piece of paper short sentence (My car does not work) and read one (I have three children) and I was down. Walked out of the office at 10:07am.

Ceremony will be in 2-3 months......

You know what I did? I printed out flash cards and used them to learn all the answers. Ones I knew real good I put away and used others I didn't know over and over again......just take your time...go over questions once a day, it takes a little time and I'm sure you will know all the answers before your interview date :)
