Free Citizenship Practice Tests
Timed practice runs of the naturalization test, scored the way a USCIS officer scores it. Pick the format you want to rehearse.
-
Naturalization test practice
The 2025 test asks 20 questions from a bank of 128 and you pass at 12. Here is a four-week practice plan built around answering out loud, not rereading lists.
-
US citizenship practice test
Most free practice tests are multiple choice. The real civics test is spoken. Here is how to build a practice test that predicts your actual score, and what score means ready.
-
Citizenship mock test
Run a 25 minute simulation of the USCIS naturalization interview at home: 20 random civics questions asked aloud, plus the reading and writing sentences, scored the way an officer scores them.
-
Citizenship test practice questions
22 practice questions taken straight from the official 2025 list of 128, with the answers USCIS accepts, plus the six questions only you can answer.
-
USCIS civics test practice
USCIS publishes the whole test for free: M-1778, M-1122, the vocabulary lists and the test updates page. Here is what each one is for and how to practice with it.
-
Citizenship test quiz
A quiz is a diagnostic, not a study method. Take this 10 question check from the official 128, score it strictly, then spend your study time on what it found.
-
Citizenship test online
You cannot take the US citizenship test online. It is oral and in person at a USCIS field office. Here is what online practice can do, and the three claims that mark a scam.
-
Citizenship writing test
One dictated sentence, three attempts, written by hand from a published word list. How it is scored, the spellings that cost people marks, and a two-week practice plan.
-
Citizenship reading test
One sentence read aloud out of three, built from a published word list. Practice sentences, why reading aloud is the whole exercise, and what happens if you miss it.
