Like it says, I took the Einbürgerungstest this past weekend. The questions are a mix of things that feel pretty obvious (which war lasted from 1939-1945) and things that require memorization (Which chancellor was responsible for the Ostverträge?). In a lot of ways, it feels like another language exam: if you understand German well enough to understand the questions, you can probably pass.

We officially had an hour, but I was done within 8 minutes, and I wasn't the first :).

One step closer to citizenship!

Very good about the chancellors! One of the questions that I didn't get was "Who was the first chancellor of the united Germany?", which is indeed Kohl :).

And I was also joking that the real integration test is how you react when they tell you that you'll receive the results by post. If you nod wisely and agree that's the only correct way, you're ready for citizenship :).
