How it works

A calmer
way to
revise.

Three honest steps. No gimmicks, no streaks-as-guilt, no dark patterns. Just enough structure to get you from “I've put this off” to “I booked it.”

01
01 · Start

Tell Bertie where you're starting.

A 2-minute baseline quiz pinpoints which of the 18 topics you already know and which need work. No pressure, no score shown.

02
02 · Practice

Short daily sessions, targeted at your gaps.

15-minute sessions mix flashcards, multiple-choice, and spaced repetition. Bertie explains in plain English when you get something wrong.

03
03 · Book

When your readiness hits 85%, book the test.

Your predicted score is built from 1,000+ data points. When it's green, and has been for three sessions, you're genuinely ready. Book with confidence.

The problem

Most apps are
quietly broken.

We rebuilt the revision experience from scratch, starting with the thing nobody else fixes: the questions themselves.

About the exam

What is the Life in the UK Test?

24questions
45minutes
75%pass mark

The Life in the UK test is a compulsory requirement for anyone applying for British citizenship or indefinite leave to remain (ILR) in the United Kingdom. Administered by the Home Office, the computer-based assessment covers British history, traditions, government, laws, and everyday life.

The exam consists of 24 multiple-choice questions drawn from the official study guide, Life in the United Kingdom: A Guide for New Residents. You have 45 minutes to complete it, and you need to answer at least 18 questions correctly (a 75% pass mark) to pass. There is no negative marking, so you should answer every question.

Around 50,000 people fail each year, often because they relied on outdated apps or incomplete study materials. Pass Britain was built to change that. Every question in our bank is verified against the current official handbook, and our AI tutor Bertie explains the reasoning behind each answer in plain English, so you genuinely understand the material, not just memorise it.

Whether you are preparing months in advance or cramming the week before your booking, Pass Britain adapts to your schedule with spaced repetition, realistic mock exams, and a readiness score that tells you exactly when you are ready to sit the real assessment.

How much does the Life in the UK Test cost?
The official Life in the UK Test costs £50 to book through GOV.UK. Pass Britain is a separate practice tool: £9.99 once for lifetime access to 1,000 verified questions, mock exams, and our AI tutor. There are no subscriptions and no hidden fees.
How many questions are on the Life in the UK Test?
The real exam consists of 24 multiple-choice questions drawn from the official Home Office handbook. You have 45 minutes to complete it and need to answer at least 18 correctly (a 75% pass mark) to pass. Pass Britain gives you 1,000 verified practice questions covering every topic the exam can test.
What is the pass mark for the Life in the UK Test?
You need to score 75% to pass, which is 18 out of 24 questions correct. There is no negative marking, so always answer every question even if you have to guess. Pass Britain's mock exams replicate the exact format and pass mark so you know exactly where you stand before test day.
What happens if I fail the Life in the UK Test?
If you fail, you can retake the test as many times as you need, but you have to wait at least 7 days between attempts and pay the £50 booking fee again each time. Most people who use thorough practice materials pass on their first attempt.
Is Pass Britain updated for 2026?
Yes. Every question is verified against the current official handbook and we update content whenever the Home Office changes the exam. Your £9.99 lifetime purchase includes all future updates.
Do I need to download an app, or can I practise in my browser?
Pass Britain runs in any modern browser on your phone, tablet, or computer. No download required. You can also add it to your home screen for an app-like experience. An iOS app is on the way, but you don't need to wait for it.
Is £9.99 really a one-time payment?
Yes. Pay once, keep forever. No subscriptions, no recurring charges, no premium tiers locked behind extra fees. Your lifetime purchase includes every feature: 1,000 questions, unlimited mock exams, the Bertie AI tutor, audio lessons, spaced repetition, and all future updates.
What if I don't pass after using Pass Britain?
We offer a 14-day money-back guarantee on all purchases, no questions asked. If you hit 90% readiness, pass three consecutive mock exams above 85%, and still fail the real test, we'll refund you in full.
Who needs to take the Life in the UK Test?
The Life in the UK Test is mandatory for anyone applying for British citizenship through naturalisation or for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR/settlement). Some people are exempt, including those under 18, over 65, or with a long-term physical or mental condition.
How long should I study for the Life in the UK Test?
Most candidates need 3 to 6 weeks of consistent practice to feel comfortable. Pass Britain's readiness score shows you exactly when you're ready to book, typically when you're consistently scoring above 85% on mock exams.
