Missed the one on the date of the Constitution...

I think this was an easier test than the British one. Lots of answers were too easy, many just common sense.

lol..that's what I thought about our British one.. easy for the most part... but of course nothing's easy if you simply don't know the answers regardless of where you are.

Impressive! Some were common sense like @Alligatorob said, but some would trip up a lot of Americans.

I didn't get asked a Cabinet question either time I took it. Scored 100% the second time, and there were only a few repeat questions.

100%. This is a fairly easy test. I remember helping my wife study for her citizenship, back in the 1970's, The documentation we gathered, in preparation, was quite complex. I learned more about U.S. history by reading all that literature than I probably did in all the history classes in school. But, after weeks of studying, she breezed right through the citizenship process.

Are the questions random? I didn't get any questions about the cabinet.

Rumors about an early blog he did about Kim Kardashian and Kanye are most likely not true, but current scholarship has not been able to definitively rule it out.
