VSC New York District N-400 Interview letter received

[jess290681 0]

Just got my interview letter today and the interview is actually somewhere in Long Island not in the Manhattan building. I submitted everything January 3rd and my interview is set for October 21st.

Not bad timing at all, I was only expecting to hear about an interview early next year. Good luck to everyone else, I hope your letters come through soon.

For now, I really hope I can memorize the history questions and answers, I am one of the worst test takers EVER! I get nervous and go blank

Hi Jess290681,

My wife's interview oct 09, 2008 in Garden city, long island. She is planning to take the old test. As fer as I understand if the interview after Oct, 2008 , you have option to take either one. Please let us know if you know any different news. Are you taking the old or the new exam.

Thanks

Hi david71

good luck to you and your wife for the interview, let me know how it goes. I think I'll do the old test too, not that I see much difference between them, unless I'm missing something. How is your wife finding understanding the different parts of the government? I'm confused! I'm really having trouble understanding who the CABINET, HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, ELECTORAL COLLEGE (how is it they decide on who the president should be?) etc actually are.

I know I just have to learn the Q & A's but having an understanding would help me cement that stuff in my mind.

Hey ShallowShrek

lucky enough I filed my N-400 before October 1, 2008 and my interview is before October 1, 2009 so this means I get to choose either the old or the new test.

I'm sticking with the old test, some of the new test questions are too tricky for me. My memory is not that great, plus, like I'd said, I'm a horrible test taker - I'll probably be so nervous that even an easy question will leave me baffled!

I didn't think that there were that many differences between the two tests but I must say, having just had another read through the new questions, you're right...it is haaaaaaaard!
