What i believe the American Dream is? Well, that's easy. The ultimate American dream is being able to have endless freedom. America is where you don't have limitations or restrictions. You also have tons of opportunity. The amount of knowledge you are able to gain from our schools is incredible, and with the education you have ensures you a suitable income.

Is the American Dream attainable?

Citizen Reflection

The questions about this Citizen Tests that were easy for me would have to be the ones asking about the rights and freedoms we have. I considered them easy because i'm in high school and I've learned previously in History about those topics. But, what I found challenging was knowing the specifics about how many representatives there is. Also what was challenging was when I was asked what the President's cabinet was. Taking this test reassured me that the immigrants coming to America are expected to know America's politics and government. Repetitive information on this test was questions about our politics and our elected representatives. The insight I now have from this test assures me that immigrants sure don't have it easy, and if they put in the countless amount of effort to get into the United States and make it, they deserve citizenship.

My Culture Identity

My mother and I aren't quite certain on how our ancestors made their way to America, or even their reasoning behind it. My Italian/Mexican background hasn't influenced my life much at all. I believe I am the person I am today because of my hard work and dedication, not because the color of my skin or the way i speak. I'm very sad to say my mom and I know little to nothing about my background culture.
