Why the agent asked my wife to send an application from RAMQ?!!!
all people told me that it takes about 40 days to RAMQ send us this Application to be ready?!!!
There is no others way to get it faster?!!
And way RAMQ so slowly..and I think many people only from Montreal asked to get it?!!
Why that for Montreal people o

Because they had a reason to question the physical presence of your wife during her eligibility period. Yes, that seems to be the time it takes to get that information. No. Only some. Because people in other offices in a similar situation would be asked for health claim reports from their provincial health plans rather than RAMQ.
Guys, based on your experiences which online practice test/quiz websites are more useful and closer to the real test? I was going through one of them which was mostly about names and dates which doesn't look close to the real test!
Thanks!
Thanks!
You're overthinking it. It's not a difficult test. You'll need to know names, dates (years), understand Canadian politics, and some of Canadian popular culture helps. It's all in the book. If it's not in the book, it won't be on the test.
I used the tests at apnatoronto and read the book.
Read (or listen to) the book a few times. If you don't learn well that way, write your own flash cards or notes (based on the book) to help you learn better.
(Someone on here recommended a CBC documentary as an extra way of becoming familiar with the material, so if that works for you then that may be worthwhile, too. But remember that only what's in the book is part of the test, so seeking out other information sources can only be a studying aid. The book should be your focus.)
Use the practice sites to check that you remember things and to get used to the format of the test, but not to learn the material. The actual test questions are likely to be different from the ones on any of the practice sites, so using the practice sites to learn the material is not a good approach.
(bolding mine, which I disagree with a little bit)
I didn't read the book. I took the practice tests and if I didn't know a question, I would refer to the book for the answer. There are 10 practice tests, which I went through about 3-4 times. Many of the facts presented in the questions were similar enough to the ones on the test that it did help with the learning of the material.
