Processing in Ottawa 2016

[Babeth]

Hello everyone this is my first post, I join here because my nerves is acting up.
They received my application Jan 11th 2016
I received an email that my application is in progress etc..and a link to the study guide Discover Canada. I then went online to check my status and noticed they started processing my application on 14th Feb 2016.
I print out the study guide like five days after but never really look at it much because from what I know this would take months.
Well to my surprise I received a mail on the 8th March 2016 which stated I am scheduled to take the citizenship test on March 23th 2016 which mean as of today I have 10 days. Am so confused and I'm not prep enough to pass the test..what is it like during this stage?Is the test hard? how long is the test?

You should be excited !! not nervous.
use the online sites for practice and read the book few times.

10 days are plenty. Just read the booklet several times. Take the online tests to know how they ask questions. Return to the booklet read at least a couple of times on the day/ aday before. U can be sure of at least 5 questions that u have never seen in the online test sites. But make sure to practice online tests...

Relax, dont worry it does not take long to prepare. If you carefully read the "Discover Canada" about 4 - 5 times you are fully prepared.

However, they are some online applications which helps to prepare candidates for the Citizenship test.

Thank you guys very much. With work and family and everything else it's not as easy. Am straining my brain soooo much, every little chance I get am on it but I find the book is hard to follow and some of the test questioning reword differently and I keep messing up :'(
I just didn't expected it to be so soon.

Most likely just about everyone prepares for about 5 days, the last couple of days intensely...
just make sure to keep taking the online tests over and over again to give you the
confidence. You should be OK.
