Advice from those who passed the exam is similar to training quizes online or better concentrate on studying the book ?!!
I wrote the test, and got 20/20. I was glad to see the actual test was much, much easier than the practice tests. The online practice tests are heavily focused on the historical dates, figures, and minute facts while the actual test quizzes you on a lot of basic knowledge. My studying advice is to read the book front to back, then do these tests: https://www.apnatoronto.com/canadian-citizenship-test-practice , then do this online practice (370+ questions) http://www.canadacitizenshipstudyguide.com/ WHILE reading/looking at the book for answers. Do the 370+ questions two or three times. On the day of the test, just read the book again, but from back to front. Don't bother doing the quizzes again the day of the test.

What is your location? There are many October applicants waiting for test invite. You can look at tracker.

I will add you to global 2017 tracker. Link is in my signature.

it can, espcially if your case is non-routine. The average processing time for routine applications is 12 months, which means some get processed within 12 months, some after.

I have not got any query or FP request in last 9 months. When I called to call center, they said criminal background and some other checks are done but few are still pending.

Do you think my case will fall under non-routine and can take more than 1 year?

Yes, your case will fall into non routine and take more than 1 year.
OMG :-(

Do you the reasons for such delays on such files like me since no quarries at all? Don't our file deserve to be process on time?

Is there anything I can do in order to speedup my application?

Did you receive a Residence Questionnaire or Quality Assurance Excercise, or request to submit ANY additional documents ? If no, and assuming you have a clean background history in Canada as well as home country, then your case is likely routine ... so far.
