just seems to me that if they're going to do a citizenship test it should be more geared around social and cultural stuff: local customs, etiquette, that kind of thing.  Found it very Bizarre!

Quite right.

Don't stand on the left on an escalator.
Don't queue-jump.

That's about it.

there should also be sections about how to make a nice cup of tea, and resisting the urge to make eye contact with or talk to fellow passengers on the tube.

14/24.

Some of those questions are like the jackpot questions they put on quiz machines when they want to screw you.

Like how many baked beans has someone eaten in an hour?

A: 336789212
B:336789213
....etc.

And with maybe more relevance to citizenship..

How many tax pennies went into making the the ridiculous idea of a citizenship test even more pointless than it already was?

Ooops.  Just hope they aren't waiting for me at the border.

Questions answered correctly: 14 out of 24 (58%)


The time available is very long given that most of the are either know or don't know.  I suspect that you might be allowed reference material in the exam, in which case its just a test of reading rather than knowledge.
