You have failed, the pass mark was 75% According to the Life in the UK Test, you have insufficient knowledge of the English language or of life in the UK to remain

LMAO & I'm 100% English ( I think :P)

13/24 Many of those questions were completely meaningless. Why do I need to know why recruitment centres were set up in the west indies in the 50s, or where most immigrants came from?

Those questions don't check whether a citizen would be a good candidate for citizenship, they check that they can read a study guide. And do you really want the test to be about getting the answers in a one off test right. There's surely a better way to judge than that test.

...Not that I'm a sore loser.

12/24 (fail)

Have to say this is an "obscure English history" quiz, not a citizenship test. This says more about English education than it does about citizenship.

I believe I take the trophy of most epic fail with 7. Tied with a da_Ricci who isn't even British. Mind you, GhostMjr probably rage quit half way through so he most likely scored less.

He got -7/24. His answers were so wrong they took marks off. He didn't just rage quite the test, he's rage quit the country and defected to North Korea.

18/24 which is not too shabby but I am pretty sure some of those were lucky guesses. Some very obscure questions!!
