get ready to receive an emails every few weeks to tell you they have done nothing with your case... so don’t get to excited before your read the email.

you do, I used the app which also gave alerts when there was a real status change. When it gives you an alert it will take another day or 2 before the letter with the actual details on it will be posted to your online account.

Yep. as above.

i had about 6 weeks notice. I had the official app on my phone and even before studying was getting a passing score each time (this had out of date answers, so I had to know the one to pass and real one....) The main problem with it is that it only require you to pick the right answer out, “multiple guess” as I call it. In the interview they will ask the questions and you have to recall the only / one of the right answers, it goes without saying, only pick one answer to recall, not multiple. e.g. for the longest river, or states that border x, or 3 of the original colonies etc.

I printed the pdf from online, one of them has a single page with each question on it, I wrote 1 correct answer for each and then studied from that. I was able to pick the 10-15 I did not know anyway and then “cram” them a the night before at the hotel.

For the ones that changes based on elections don’t trust the government websites to have the right information, e.g. my State has not updated the governor... double check these on Google.

At my ceremony even Senator Blumenthal made a point of saying that most Americans would not pass the test. I can see how some applicants would find it harder, but if you are educated to degree level and have english as a first language, you should find it very easy, I was only asked 6 questions and got them all right.
