The civic knowledge test that actually matters
67% of Americans can't pass basic civics tests—and don't realize what they're missing.
We test how power actually works, not textbook theory.
Why this test is different
We don't ask if you can recite the preamble. We ask if you understand why your vote for state legislature might matter more than your presidential vote. We test whether you know how lobbying actually works, not just that it exists.
Real questions. Real stakes. Real knowledge.
New voters
Find out if you're actually prepared to participate in democracy—or just going through the motions.
Immigrants and new citizens
See if you understand American politics better than people born here. (Spoiler: you probably do.)
Educators and students
Discover the gaps between what we teach about civics and how government actually functions.
Parents
Know enough to explain why politics affects your family's daily life—from school funding to healthcare costs.
Professionals
Understand the political forces shaping your industry before your competitors do.
Political junkies
Think you know politics? Prove it. Our advanced questions separate the informed from the opinionated.
The uncomfortable truth about civic knowledge
67% of Americans can't pass a basic citizenship test. But knowing facts isn't enough anymore. In an age of misinformation and polarization, you need to understand how democracy actually works—not how we wish it worked.
