Practising the 2025 civics test by topic
The civics test is an oral test: a USCIS officer asks official questions and you answer out loud. Working through one topic at a time makes the bank easier to remember than practising in random order, because the questions in a topic explain each other.
Every question and answer here is the official USCIS wording for the 2025 test. Use the question list to jump between the questions you have finished and the ones you saved for review.
Practicing the 2025 questions by topic
What topics does the 2025 civics test cover?
American government, American history, and symbols and holidays. This page groups all 128 official questions into 13 study topics, such as the Constitution, the three branches, rights and responsibilities, and the Civil War, following the order of the USCIS study guide.
Which topic should I practice first?
Start with the Constitution and the three branches of government. Many later questions build on them. Then move through the history topics in order, so the events make sense as a story.
Can I practice one topic at a time instead of all the questions?
Yes. Pick a topic and work through only its questions, mark the ones you know and save the hard ones for review. Your progress is kept in your browser, so you can come back to the topic where you left off.
How do I know I have learned a topic?
When you can answer every question in it out loud, without looking, on two different days. Then test yourself in random order with a full practice test, because on test day the questions do not come grouped by topic.
Why are some questions flagged while I practice?
The flag marks answers that change over time or depend on where you live, such as current officials, your governor, your senators and your representative. They must be correct on the day of your interview, so check them again shortly before you go.
