Hello, what are the best and free iPad Citizenship tests?

 
    just read the book carefully if possible listen audio while reading online Discover Canada and pay attention to pictures and captions also questions are from there too and just practice the free tests available online too. Questions could be tricky as well  so memorising the book is very important.this is my experience. I recently passed the test 20/20.
