Hello everyone,

Congratulations to the people who have recently passed the test and got their oath/waiting for oath.

I have the following questions:

1. What type of questions are asked during the written test? Is it tough or its easy(difficulty level)

2. Are all the questions multiple choice?

3. Does the CIC Officer ask questions from "Discover Canada" Book during the interview?

1. The test is not easy or difficult, but straightforward. That is, if you are aware of the official study material, you should be fine.
2. Yes. Some are True/False, which is still multiple choice, but with a 50% chance of getting it right.
3. Absolutely not. Even if they do, you may choose not to answer. They are not there to test your knowledge. Only a judge can do that.

No soliciting or sharing of questions -- every test-taker is told to abide by the test confidentiality. You also sign the test sheet in front of the interviewing officer.

Thanks, could you please elaborate your statement "1. The test is not easy or difficult, but straightforward. That is, if you are aware of the official study material, you should be fine."


I know discover canada is the only book to read for test preparation(official) however are the online websites useful for the test? Did you get questions in the test as per the online test websites.

Certainly. I would advise you read Discover Canada twice. After completing each section during the first round, try to briefly summarize and visualize that section's story in your mind. That helps a lot (old memory trick). When you read the book for a second time, try to precede the story in the section you are about to read. Then, read the section and see what you need to improve. After reading the guide twice, try the questions in the practice tests listed at http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/test-preparation-t242513.0.html. You should be a master in command in the end. That process should make the test straightforward--that's what I roughly meant.

Good luck!

Thanks a lot for your tips! I'm 1/3 the way into my first pass. I found making some notes for myself is useful too. One of my friend recommended this website and its app http://citizenshipcounts.ca/quiz The app has random quiz and videos too.

I highly recommend you carefully review all questions in yourlibrary.ca (the Richmond public library) as well as the apna Toronto site.

Thanks! Do you think the captions in the book are important too?

Are there any fill in the blanks?

No. You get an optical test sheet and a pencil to darken the circle corresponding to the right answer for each question. The test sheet is scanner readable (OMR, that is). The 20 test questions are laminated on a separate set of sheets, and the multiple choices are bulleted by letters (A, B, C, D; or A and B for True/False questions).

Richmond library BC has good practice questions.
There is an app for citizenship test practice, funded by the govt which is good as well.
Need to know all the names of MP, MPP and gov general, premier as well... The official guide reminds you to take notes on those which is province and city specific...
