    I got 10 right, however, they have got one wrong lol UK voltage is not 240.

    From 1 January 1995 the nominal voltage across Europe has been 'harmonised' at 230V/400V

    I got 10, the questions must vary as there was no mention of voltage in my questions!

    Also, there was no way I could get 15 as there were only 14 questions.
    Me and my fella spit our dummies out so we won't be coming back. ever. boo hoo.

    This is a techy / hackers forum not a fu**ing mothers meeting so - peace out.

    I got 7 questions right but lets face it if we had the guide and wanted to become a citizen in the UK then we would all swat up and get 15 right. They shouldn't produce a guide as anyone who really wants to become a citizen will go and find all the information for themselves, now all people need is a couple of hours reading time before the exam.
