Mock exam rules

How many questions are in the Canadian Citizenship Test?
20 multiple-choice questions, with 45 minutes to answer them.
What is the pass mark for the Canadian Citizenship Test?
You need 15 of 20 correct, which is 75%.
How much does the Canadian Citizenship Test cost?
The test is part of your citizenship application rather than a separately booked exam, so practising first saves you time rather than a second fee.
Are these the real exam questions?
No. No government publishes its real exam questions. These are written from Discover Canada, the official study guide the real questions are drawn from.
Is the Canadian Citizenship Test hard?
It is straightforward if you have read the material and unforgiving if you have not. You need 15 of 20 correct, so you can only afford 5 mistakes. Most people who fail have read the guide once and never tested themselves under time.
How should I prepare for the Canadian Citizenship Test?
Sit one timed mock before you read anything. It takes 45 minutes and tells you which chapters are already fine, so you can spend your study time on the two or three that are costing you marks. Then drill those, and retest. Reading Discover Canada front to back is the slowest route.
