Hi,
Congratulations on the test invite. To answer your questions:
1. The pass mark is 15 out of 20.
2. If you score less than that, you will be invited to take another test within 4 to 8 weeks after the first test. If you still fail that one, you will then be invited to an interview with a citizenship officer, where your knowledge is tested.
3. It is an interview. First, your test invite tells you to bring your identity documents and all passports. Then, also think about your circumstances personally. Is there something peculiar about your own situation? For example, if you frequently visit the USA on day trips (eg as a cross-border worker), and you have this long list of daily absences, you might want to bring supporting documentation for that. Your present work is another thing you should have evidence for, in case you're asked.
From my research, for most people, the interview is just to look at the originals of the photocopies you submitted with your application.
remember to bring along the identity documents for your spouse/common-law partner and kids, (whether they are in Canada or not).
Hope this helps.

It helps, thanks a lot manhunter!!!

Done the test today.
20/20.
The whole process took me less than 20 min. I'm glad I studied hard because it was a lot of comprehensive questions.
The interviewer said congrats after checked all docu (it was quick as well)and mentioned to wait for the letter of oath.
I'm so relieved. Can't wait to see my status turns to DM.

Congrats!
