    8/24. I guessed almost all of them.

    I'm not British, I'm Welsh :sexface:

    I managed to score 13/24 (54%), I had to guess a majority of the questions though. Some of those questions were laughable.

    Apparantly I'm not British (42%) because I don't know how much a blind man's TV license costs. :unimpressed:

    That being said, I got the date of St.Georges day wrong (I'm not good with dates... ) so a low score was probably deserved...

    Meh.

    (Original post by Sharri5)
    Is there a question about the condition of british teeth?

    There is.

    Q) What negative stereotype about Britain is in fact full of ****?
    A) The one about bad British teeth. British teeth are not only not bad, they are in fact the best in the God-damn world. The average tooth decay amongst British children is 0.6 of a tooth. Our teeth might not be the whitest, but that's because unlike Americans, we don't need to spend thousands and thousands on cosmetic procedures, because we aren't insecure nonces.

    Nice try though.

    Hmm. I think that a citizenship test focused predominately on basic UK law and British etiquette would be more beneficial to both immigrants and the UK as a whole.

    9/25.
