US Citizenship Practice Test 3: The President and the Executive Branch

10 questions. Pass mark 60%. Free, unlimited retakes, explanation on every answer.

This test covers the executive branch: how long a President serves, when we vote, who takes over if the President cannot serve, and what the Cabinet does. It also covers the two year term of a representative and who a senator represents, which complete the legislative section.

In the real interview the officer asks these questions out loud and expects an answer in your own words. Several answers in this section, including the names of the current President and Vice President, change after an election. Always confirm the current office holders on the USCIS website shortly before your interview rather than relying on any study material, including this one.

Study tip for this theme: learn the order of succession as a short chain. President, then Vice President, then Speaker of the House. That single chain answers two separate questions on the official list.

1.We elect a United States Representative for how many years?

2.Who does a United States Senator represent?

3.We elect a President for how many years?

4.In what month do we vote for President?

5.If the President can no longer serve, who becomes President?

6.If both the President and the Vice President can no longer serve, who becomes President?

7.Who is the Commander in Chief of the military?

8.Who signs bills to become laws?

9.Who vetoes bills?

10.What does the President's Cabinet do?

0 of 10 answered. The real test allows 20 minutes.
