The test to become a US citizen is getting changed. In about a month, it will be longer with around 120 possible questions. And it will be more random with 20 questions pick from the 120. Here are some example questions.
— There were 13 original states. Name 5.
— What is the form of the government of the United States.
— The US Constitution starts with “We the people”. What does “We the people mean”?
— What are 2 cabinet level positions?
— Thomas Jefferson is famous for many things, Name one of them.
