Take a test and see how well you score. You'd need 18/25 to pass = 75pcnt.

I took test 1 and got 17/25 and then test two where i got 19/25 lmao. I'm actually astounded at some of those qs.

Questions I got wrong were;

Who is the patron saint of Wales and on which date is his feast day? (I put St James lol)
Many schools organise events to raise money for extra equipment or out-of-school activities (I put No, as mine never?? or anyone near me :S we only done 'out of school activities' to promote stuff, like selling stuff in town to show healthy eating and junk :S)
______ abolished slavery throughout the British Empire (I put abolition act lol)
Why is 1928 an important year for women's rights? (I put women could vote 18, but it was 21)

God those practise tests are a joke. They tell you about life in the UK for a historian. Not a member of the general public. I think even Dan might struggle with some of those questions.

I have to say i did find it very odd that someone who doesn't live in the UK would be expected to know some things placed on those tests. The first question on test 1 for example... im astounded if anyone in this thread knew it without a guess.

20/24 for the first one (though I was sarcastic with the last answer on purpose xD)

There is no place in British society for extremism or intolerance

20/24 for the second
