civics exam

Government knowledge assessment

A civics exam tests knowledge of how government works—the structure of institutions, rights of citizens, voting procedures, and constitutional principles.

The term often refers specifically to the naturalization test required for U.S. citizenship: She studied for months to pass her civics exam.

Schools also administer civics exams as part of social studies curricula.
