That's really not a bad score, for right off the top of your head, considering you're not really studying at all. If you wanted to take the test for real, I'm sure you'd manage to do just fine! I think 60% is still better than most native-born US citizens do on the test.

I've got a few years before I'm even eligible to take the test as you have to wait a certain amount of years between getting the greencard and applying for citizenship

85%. DAMN IT! I always get the dates for the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution mixed up--though I got the DOI question right--this time.
And I'm horrible with memorable quotes from old white men who wore bad wigs. Damn.

There is no excuse for not knowing how many US Representatives we have--I second guessed myself, thinking that 435 was too high, but that 102 was obviously too low. So I went with two low, knowing that it was wrong. Ugh.

The question about who selects the Supreme Court justices was definitely a tricky question though, because I was thinking more along the lines of who makes the final decision as opposed to who nominates them. :dunno

75%. There were two I probably shouldn't've messed up though. I don't think that's a bad score considering I've only been in US schools since High School. I didn't get all the history training the rest of you might've.

Depends on how you got your citizenship! I'm a naturalized citizen so I knew that one. :cp
