Whoa....I did not do so well--only 85%. I guess my BA in American Government and my MA in US Foreign Policy is not worth the paper it is written on! I am seriously embarassed.
Actually, I missed the question on qualifications for US President. I thought to myself....how ELSE could George W. have been elected president...it MUST have been the governer thing..????! (kidding, sorry Bush fans)

Aced it. How hard was it to figure out the form...the words "application" and "naturalization" were in the title of the form? Jeesh!
Also, don't rely on schools, public or private, to teach your kids everything. Take a little interest yourself...you might learn something!

I got the INS form wrong too. Like others I thought the word "petition" was more governmental than the simpler "application". My degree is in History so I guess I should get them right! 'Course it has been a long time.....

I got 100%, but only because I guessed right on the INS form. Come to think of it, a real applicant for naturalization would be more likely to know that than we would
In answer to the question above about how hard is it to guess that when the name has the word "application":
One of the other choices has the word "petition," which is used in the title of many legal forms and applications.

Urp! Scored 100% - to the great surprise of you and me!
But if beachbum is going to get deported to Tahiti because of a low score, then mine was 20%.
The INS form was easy. Just choose the biggest number - when has the government ever done things in a simple way?
BTilke - thanks for a fun post! Great post to run across after a day of too much exercising of small brain cells and big emotions!
