The test supervisor will advise the examinee that he has failed the Life in the UK Test. In the event of failing the exam one shouldn’t apply for naturalization as a British citizen or indefinite leave to remain right away. The test can be taken again but after a certain number of days has elapsed. The best advice is to review and review until an examinee feels a certain confidence in taking the exam.

Failing an exam just like loosing the pass notification letter could mean another expense in the testing fee as well as time has to be allocated in taking this 45 minute exam. Although there is no limit to the number of times the exam could be taken by someone who failed it. It still makes sense to be very prepared and have all bases covered in preparation of this test.

There are a number of websites and books around that help prepare an examinee with simulated sample exams one such sample exam is posted on the website of the BBC. It would also help to ask people who have taken the exam for advice on what to study and what to read about but asking for the exact questions in the exams is a no-no. Reviewing will be fun and informative in discovering what the United Kingdom is all about after all taking this test is a step in staying in the country for good. This test is part of being part of the community and assimilating in the social mores and traditions.
