1. How to prepare for the Life in the UK test?
The Life in the UK test is one of two tests you will need to complete to satisfy your KOLL requirements for UK settlement or British citizenship.
The test itself was introduced to the UK in November 2005 which aimed to test foreign national’s knowledge of English language and culture.
This test is to help migrants integrate into UK society easier with general knowledge of UK heritage, culture and history.
It can be difficult to pass this test and we will outline the main ways to prepare for the test.
2. What happens during the test?
How long is the test? 45 minutes
How many questions? 24 questions
What is the pass rate? 18 questions (75%)
Have a look at our videos on our YouTube page for more information.
3. Why do people fail this test?
The major reason for failing this test is a lack of preparation.
If you go into the test without reading the official handbook (which is included in our online training material) then you will have a pretty poor chance of passing.
That being said if you do not try any practice questions then you will have a tough time answering the real test when you get to it.
Try our FREE Life in the UK test questions on our website.
NOTE: If you take the test and fail you will need to pay for the exam again (£50). Also you will need to wait a week before you can retake the test.
4.How long should I study for?
Normally we recommend studying for 10 hours over 5 weeks.
However there are some cases where the Home Office will require your pass certificate by a certain date. If that is the case please contact us and we will fast track you through the exam.
Try your best to read the official handbook (or listen to the official audiobook)
