11. I'll get my coat.
To be fair I got the practical ones right, and I consider this the important bits. That I didn't know when women got the right to divorce their husbands is nice to know but immigrants will think this stuff is important and when down the pub will be trying to discuss such things and get blank looks from everyone around them!
There was nothing in my test about cultural social acceptances that are likely to differ. I would have thought this is important for immigrants to know?0 -
Got 14 out of 25 so I also failed but why do people who want to pass the test need this Information ?
Many questions pointless and more questions on culture, customs and laws of this country should have been used
Only my views0 -
I got 11 but am not sure why some of those questions were relevant? They seem pretty daft questions tbh - surely it is more important to know about our culture than in what year women were allowed to divorce their husbands???I am a Mortgage Adviser

What a weird bunch of questions.
Word of warning - make sure you maximise the browser window before you start or you might neatly never get to see answer option D - no scroll bar will remind you to look lower for more answers
What on earth has that divorce question got to do with citizenship?
And surely most children's prescriptions are free ?
And what's an emergency - anything that requires referral to a doctor outside surgery hours where the patient is able to present him or herself surely? Or maybe it is good UK citizenship to grin and bear it until Monday morning and endure the phone, appointment delays, and waiting systems at the GPs?0 -
