I read this to prepare for my citizenship exam. No real shocks in this bland and boring bureaucratic written guide. It must have been difficult to write in order to make it the least offensive document possible to all sectors of Australian society. Written in order not to offend anyone, so you say nothing. If you say something important it is bound to offend someone, even if it is the truth.
I have got 20/20 in every practice exam I have taken so far. I am preparing correctly in my attempt to become Australia. Guide read – roll on the exam.
