US Citizenship Test: the questions people fail

The civics questions that trip people up most, with the dates trick and a quiz.

The officer asks up to 10 of the 100 civics questions. Get 6 right and you pass.

The three branches, in one line

Legislative makes laws (Congress). Executive enforces them (the President). Judicial reviews them (the courts). Most wrong answers mix up the last two.

How many U.S. Senators are there?


100 — two from each state. Representatives: 435, based on population.

What is the supreme law of the land?


The Constitution. Not the Declaration of Independence — that's the document that announced independence.

How many amendments does the Constitution have?

  1. A10
  2. B17
  3. C27
  4. D50

27 total. The first 10 are the Bill of Rights — the test asks for both numbers, so learn them as a pair.

The dates worth memorizing

1776 Declaration of Independence · 1787 Constitution written · 1789 government begins. Learn them as a sequence, not as three separate facts.

We elect a U.S. Senator for how many years?

  1. A2 years
  2. B4 years
  3. C6 years
  4. DLife

Senators serve 6 years, Representatives 2, the President 4. Three numbers, one table — the test loves mixing them.

The answers that change

Some answers depend on when and where you take the test: your governor, your representative, the Speaker of the House. Check the current names the week before.

There are 100 public questions. As a quiz, that's one week.
