Do You Have What It Takes to Become a US Citizen?

Here are some of the questions presented to immigrants who want to become US citizens. Could you pass the test? http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/13442226/I scored 75%, but then I'm not an American so I guess that's not too bad.

When I took my citizenship test they asked me two questions:
1) What are the first ten ammendments to the US Constitution known as?
2) What are the three branches of the federal government?
Seriously, that was it. I waited something like four hours to take a four minute test. In total, I bet I spent 20 hours sitting in the INS waiting room. I'd give them 10:1 odds over the Post Office in a slowness contest.

Rats, I got 95%. I missed the INS form. 19. What INS form is used to apply to become a naturalized citizen?
