Australian Citizenship Test

Australian values. The 5 you must get right

The rule that catches people out

Every one of the 5 values questions must be correct. Get 4 of 5 right and you fail the entire test. Even with 19 out of 20 overall, comfortably above the 15 needed.

Our mock exams reproduce this exactly, so if it is going to happen to you it happens here rather than at the test centre.

Common questions

How many Australian Values questions are in the citizenship test?
5 of the 20 questions are on Australian values.
What happens if I get one values question wrong?
You fail the whole test. All 5 values questions must be correct, so scoring 19 out of 20 with one values question wrong is still a fail.
What do the values questions cover?
Australia's democratic beliefs, rights and liberties. Democracy, the rule of law, freedom of speech and religion, equality of opportunity and mutual respect. They come from Part 4 of Our Common Bond.
Are the values questions harder than the rest?
No. They are usually the most straightforward questions in the test. People fail on them because they rush, not because they are difficult.
