This is still called the 3rd Edition, but contains IMPORTANT changes from earlier copies! Specifically it advises that dates of birth and death do not have to be memorised. As the Test questions can be on any aspect of the book, this is welcome amendment - however, this is NOT mentioned on the Life in UK website or UKBA websites. It really should be called the 4th Edition to avoid confusion. Don't use earlier books for study. Also query whether the information about the EU is relevant any longer, or does it still have to be learned as it is in the book. The book does not say where you can comment or inquire on its contents.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Glaring mistakes on the first few pages
The home office appear to not know the rules for being British or what rights those with indefinite leave to remain but not citizenship have. This is their third attempt. How can it be so bad! Just learn with a free app on your smartphone and avoid wasting your time. Typical Tory incompetence.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Official Book
There are a number of books available that claim to provide the content which should be studied to pass the residency test. From my research this is the official book and the 3rd edition/2018 is the latest version at the time of writing this review. The content is well laid out and the facts are condensed which is helpful for revision.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

The official guide
Only bought as a necessity as HMG continues to discriminate against non EU partners. After £7k and still counting to provide my wife of 13+ years with a British passport, the price of this book is negligible.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Practical Guide is not enough
I bought two books to prepare for my exam. It is easy to read and questions with answers and explanations are OK. But you should be aware that Practical Guide is NOT ENOUGH, it contains only a part of information, it says almost nothing about the UK history, famous people and Religion, which is a half of final test questions. You should read it definitely but be ready to learn much more when you start doing practical tests.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Good summary of the UK
I thought I knew quite a bit about the UK, but I learned quite a lot from reading this book. Obviously, it covers several topics and does not go in depth on a given topic. But, if you are interested, you could always explore a topic in greater detail from other sources. A must read, in my opinion, for anyone looking to settle in the UK.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Truly the only books you need
All questions in the Life in the UK Test are taken from this book. You MUST read it and study it! I also recommend the TSO practice test app, which is £4. I studied this book for 2 weeks and passed on the first try.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

If you need it, take it!
Book is what you need to pass the citizenship test. It has arrived pretty fast and well wrapped. It is complete and covers all the national citizenship test requirement. Very happy with the experience. Thank you!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
