About this question
This is a free practice question from the England topic in the About the UK chapter. These questions concern England specifically — its geography, cities, regions and landmarks, and how it sits within the wider United Kingdom. Useful for untangling the terms England, Great Britain and the UK, which the test treats as distinct.
The real Life in the UK Test has 24 multiple-choice questions and a 45-minute time limit, and you need 18 correct to pass. Practising a topic at a time is the quickest way to find the areas that still need work.
