Nine out of ten Red Squirrel readers pass Britishness test

Nine out of ten Red Squirrel readers pass Britishness test

For most people applying for citizenship or settling in the UK, passing the Life in the UK Test is mandatory. However, out of every 100,000 applicants that take the test, one out of three can expect to fail.

With the requirements getting more complex, effective preparation has never been more important. But the high failure rate proves that, for many, relying on the official publication alone simply isn't enough.

With over 100,000 copies sold to date, Red Squirrel's best-selling Life the UK Test: Study Guide is the definitive companion to the official handbook, equipping applicants with the knowledge and confidence they need to pass first time.

In addition to all the relevant study materials from the official guide plus the latest changes to the immigration rules, it guides readers through the official processes, step-by-step. So at every stage applicants know what to expect and how to respond.

Difficult topics are made easy using simple diagrams, hints and tips are provided on avoiding common mistakes and a 'Useful Words to Know' section explains official terms - important if English is a second language. There's also a wealth of revision advice plus 240 practice questions based on 2007 study materials with even more available, free, online. (Visit http://www.lifeintheuk.net for a free test.)

The result is that, with the Life the UK Test: Study Guide, applicants have a head-and-shoulders advantage. 95% of our readers pass compared with the UK average of just 69% and an impressive 89% of our readers pass first-time round. Statistics that speak for themselves!

The Life the UK Test: Study Guide is available from WHSmith and other major bookstores priced just £7.99 (ISBN 978-0-9552-1594-0).

For those wanting further practice, the Life the UK Test: Practice Questions book containing over 400 questions is also available priced £5.99 (ISBN: 978-0-9552-1593-3).
