Do you think most U.S native born U.S Citizens can pass the " Citizenship Test " or " Naturalization Exam" ??
Answer:
Actually yes, I think most could.
No not at all but then again we don't have to now do we?
hell no...
If they studied, yes.
Not without a refresher course (me included)
I can ...

NOT A CHANCE...
I've seen the test and some of the stuff on there a U.S. Native won't be able to answer.
Believe you, me!
I think in 4th grade, they can. The point is that those of us born here have taken years of our history. We may have forgotten more than most immigrants will ever learn, including some questions on the test, but if you want to be a citizen here you should damned well want to learn the history of the country you are becoming a part of.
However, I always passed every practice exam I've taken.
to be honest very few can because my father had to take one and he studied for years. most americans cant even recite the first lines from america the beautiful much less name the 15th president.
doesnt matter cause the new citizens the elites are trying to sneak in dont know or even care about this country or that stupid test.
No after watch Jay Leno go on the street and ask questions.
When you have 1/3 of the democrats believing Bush did 9/11.
Ever seen Street Smarts? That being said, I doubt that 50% of the population would pass.
I've helped people study. It's pretty easy. But then most people on this site are barely literate.
I doubt if Paris Hilton could, and I know a handful of kids who couldn't. But most of us, yeah, no doubt in my mind.
I hope so -- I know I could -- I suspect the answer is no since I recently watched the TV show Are you smarter than a 5th grader? and was appalled by the lack of knowledge exhibited.
I went to the site recommended by Joe U and happy to say I was right -- I could pass it.
what does it matter we are American born,we did not come across a border,or ocean,and if we,some,or all can not pass such a test,you can hang that problem on the neck of democrats/liberals for the mess the public education is in,thanks to teddy kennedy,and all other democrats/liberals who are responsible for writing most education bills!
no
I just got a 100...but I do have a Bachelors Degree in Historical and Political Studies...
I don't think that allot of the people couldn't; because they are not taught like they were years ago. When I was in school we were taught about the Constitution and the different branches of the government. Now days the teachers don't even know the subject that they are teaching in most cases. One of my teachers was a biologist and he could answer just about any question you could ask him. Now days a teacher in geography is more than likely not be able to point out a certain state on the map. If you listen to Jay Leno on the Tonight Show some of the teachers can't answer some of the questions that we were asked when I was in school.
Yes,someone else already posted it and I passed with no problem.
With the state that schools are in these days I say most won't. My friend (U.S. born), who lives in Tucson, recently moved back to the U.S. after having lived in Mexico since she was 9 yrs old. She took a test to become a teacher's aid and was afraid that she wouldn't pass because most of the people taking the test (citizens) had already failed it several times. SHE PASSED ON THE FIRST TRY!! Then she studied, on her own, and took/passed all the tests for her GED in one week! Could this be a tribute to Mexican schools? Another factor, in my opinion is that a lot of people no longer have any pride in this, the most bountiful, wonderful country in the world (20 million illegal aliens can't all be wrong) and don't even bother to study this country's history in depth. Yes, there have been atrocities and only God can answer why he let those things happen, but don't forget that this is the most excellent place to be; take the time to find out why..
I KNOW I couldn't.Do you realize the young people today many don't even know the Pledge of Allegiance?
Yes indeed...
that is the foundation of citizenship which is part of U.S. educational curricullum...
it would be a shame if a person born and raised here would flunk the test.
Yep.no problem.
Not based on the people who ask stupid questions on Yahoo.
If they can not, there is somethign wrong with the education system. Oh wait, we all ready know that. Also, that would be a different group.
No since Bush's No child left behind law requires children to pass only in the subjects of Math, Reading Comprehension, and Writing/ Vocabulary. I read the EOG'S and there are 5 different tests in each grade and and only a fifth of the class will receive the same exam. The teachers are to focus more on the requirements of the EOG's than to each other subjects. Many of the teachers salaries are dependant on how well their students do on the exams. I do not beleive that many people would. I probably would because History of any type was my favorite subject - the subjects I took in college were World History Archeology and Anthropology and then the required courses. Those that are my age 38 or older would probably not remember every thing on that test. I sent a copy to my neice at Indiana Univ. who is studying business and economics and she missed way too many. The test it's self is a bit out dated and more people keep up on the events of the last 10 years more than the history of the US for the past 200.
Just regular people, nope dont think so. Some of those questions I dont think are even taught in the school system.
No, I don't think so because most spoiled brats who oppose Immigrants are undereducated.
