[pleasetellmewhy]

Hello All,

I thought naturalization test is verbal only untill I saw the philly post. http://immigrationportal.com/showthread.php?t=275668

Please share your experience from different D.O.

There are several parts to the Naturalization test. One is answering several civics questions orally, another is writing a short sentence, and reading a short sentence out loud. Your speaking ability is also tested in actual conversation during the interview. The test rules are the the same at every DO.

Obviously you had a 2-in-1 test

Yes, just the way you show you understand the conversation and can answer questions is part of your English evaluation. A written history test would qualify also as a proof you know how to write in English. One way or another the interview includes an element of English knowledge testing.
