Hi all,

I'm just curious, my interview is coming up in a few weeks. Has anybody here been asked to recite or sing the star spangled banner or the pledge of allegiance? I heard from a friend of mine that he was asked to recite a few lines.

Anybody here experienced the same thing? I'm a little bit worried because the Star Spangled Banner is kinda long to memorize :clock:

Thanks for your time...

Oh my gosh, no way. I was never asked that and I haven't heard of anybody who's said that. As far as I know, they'll ask you a few of the civics questions, ask you to write a sentence in English and you're done.

You do that during the actual Oath ceremony. You will be given a pamphlet with all the words. Then you and 500 others all at the same time attempt to (at the same time) say it. It's quite funny when 1/2 the people stumble on an english word and everyone then is saying it out of rythem. I think a lot just whispered or mouthed it. So no memorization at all and it's a lot of fun during the oath ceremony...

I'm just a wanderer in the desert winds...

Phew...What a relief! Singing it is one thing but memorizing the whole thing is quite another. Thank you both for your time..
