With St George's Day here, it's the perfect time to test your knowledge and see how well you really know the UK.

Applicants wanting to become British citizens must pass a "Life in the UK" quiz, put together from 3,000 facts about what it means to be British.

Anyone who wants to reside in the UK as a citizen must take the citizenship test.

Typically the quiz has 24 questions and must be completed within 45 minutes.

Here at The Express we have put together 13 questions from the quiz. It's the perfect way to test your British history, political knowledge and fundamental principles of British life. 

An average of 75 percent is required to pass the real citizenship test, however research by Essex University in 2021 found that most Brits don't know enough about their country to pass. 

In total 270 people were given the test, most of whom were UK citizens, and results found two-thirds of Brits fail.

So what better way to mark St George's Day than putting your knowledge on all things British to the test. Let us know how you did in the comments.
