Think you could pass a U.S. Citizenship exam? From easy questions like, "Who is the president of the United States?" to harder questions that might stump the average American, we take a look at the exam

I took a practice one through my college. 100 or so questions, only one I got wrong was "how many representatives are there currently in the house of representatives"

I said 450 buts its actually 435

No multiple choice.

Some were variable like

Name one senator in your state

How many congressional districts are in your state?

Name the representative of your congressional district

What congressional district do you live in?

I'm assuming what you meant to type was, " I think it's wrong to just be given your citizenship. It looks like your asking for a hand out. Hispanics usually do this."

Correct me if I'm mistaken.

that being said, how can you clump all hispanics into that group?

We don't need that kind of negativity.

p.s. If that's not what you meant, forgive my response. I have an issue with stereotypes.

They are the easiest questions ever. It is not fair.

This is not News Room type, BTW.

Your mom can sponsor you if you are under 21. If you are over 21, you have to leave the country and serve the ban and wait for your turn.
