Civic questions - what if I answered wrong?

[Bluehorse 0]

During the interview, how many questions will I be asked out of the total pool of 100? And how many could I answer incorrectly but still pass this test?

Thanks!

10.

And how many could I answer incorrectly but still pass this test?

4.

Thank you! This really helps... I was practicing hard thinking I need to be 100% correct...

You need six correct answers to pass the test. If you have answered the first six correctly, the interviewer will stop at that and move on to other parts of the interview.

This in incorrect. You must answer 6 questions correctly out of 10 in order to pass.

Exactly- so 4 incorrect answers and you still pass, as the previous poster said. I think you missed the "in".

What else will be tested besides the 10 Qs?

Hah, sorry. I should never try and read at 6am when I'm not awke yet.

Your reading and writing. The IO will make you read a sentence and then ask you to write an answer to that sentence, which the IO will read out to you.

At my interview I was handed a sheet with a question on it and asked to read out loud the question, sign it and give it to the IO. Then she hands me another page with the question and an area where I am to write word for word the asnwer as the IO says it to you.

Then we started in on the 10 questions. I got the first 6 right and we stopped, signed that paper and pretty much that was it. The IO informed me that she was recommending me for citizenship and what will happennext. Getting a letter for the Oath, etc.

If you get more than 4 questions wrong you obviously don't pass and can't be approved. According to page 37 of the Guide to Naturalization document on the USCIS website (which you should read, carefully, in its entirety, as soon as possible - http://www.uscis.gov/files/article/M-476.pdf ) if you fail the English or civics test, but pass everything else, the IO can mark your case as "Continued", rather than "Denied". That means they schedule you for another interview in 60-90 days. If you fail whatever test again, then they deny you. At that point you can apply again, but you have to pay another $680.

That's exactly how it went for my wife. Once you get 6 right, they move on.

no other questions about the application?
