really ! i just saw another member in this forum where s/he mentioned that questions were not easy ! some were not in the book !!Read the book twice and You will pass 100% with 20/20
All info is in the book - it is just some questions have a tricky wording so require some logical thinking. But there were not many questions like that in my test. Most of questions were very similar to online quizzes.
when you go in the test use your common sense and give it some time. There is no need to rush. They give you 30 minutes to do the test and its a lot of time to answer 20 questions. Be confident and do not panic. Its multiple choice so its very easy to pick the right answer. After finishing the test, double check your answers and as I said do not rush..
Its very simple questions there, What people have been saying that they change the questions, well they have to because they can't give you copy paste from the book. They want you to use your common sense too
I give you one example what kinda question you can get in the test
1) what is the definition of volunteer ? you have to pick one answer right from 4 options
Now this question some one can even answer without reading the book
I do not know if this question is in "discover Canada book" or not
2) What is the job of police in Canada
You have to pick one right from 4 options. Obviously some one can easily guess from 4 options what the job of police can be
3) what are responsibilities of Canadian citizens
I don't think some one can guess it wrong from 4 different options
4) First prime minister of Canada John A Macdonald did what for this country
you have to pick from 4 answers
obviously he worked for democracy...you may not find this question in the book its just a common sense
5) Saskatchewan was once called bed and breakfast of world for what reason
because it produces highest amount of grains and oil seeds
and not because of oil or gas or electricity
So all in all expect these kinda questions.
Go through the book and there is no need to remember all those difficult dates and events etc etc
You should just have a basic idea how this country works and on what principles and how every day life is in here.
Myself I will always welcome questions that are little bit testing and challenging and not copy paste from the book
hope this helps
I am sure after passing this test you will say like every one else oh it was way too easy
Good luck!

They are all in the book, otherwise you could go after CIC.
I had a question where I thought it was not in the book but it was. The question was, “what was the RCMP originally called”.
They ask very precise questions and not necessarily the ones you consider important.
Here is a link to test sites:
https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/online-tests.524048/
trust me if you read the book more than 2 times and you will pass with 20/20
those questions were simple and straight forward
I would like to add “...and do enough online quizzes to get a feeling for the questions”trust me if you read the book more than 2 times and you will pass with 20/20
those questions were simple and straight forward
If you only read the book you might consider certain things more worthwhile remembering than others, but the test might ask you very specific questions that you might consider not so important.
Example: when I read the book I thought it to be wise to memorize a historical timeline. One of my test questions though was what was the RCMP called before it was called RCMP...certainly not something I considered vital.
In my test There were precise questions about dates and names, but not all of them. In my case maybe about 5 questions were precise like name of one historical building in Ottawa and name of a painter from Quebec. But most questions were common sense, however answers were worded in a tricky way so when you look at them you will have two answers looking correct but one of them will have a small detail that will indicate it is wrong. So they are checking your English/French reading comprehension.
I read book 3 times and did all online quizzes I could find - passed 20/20.
