Our own practice questions on the facts of the public social studies curriculum (the curriculum for adult immigrants and samfunnskunnskap.no). They are not the real test tasks, which are confidential and never published, and no text from samfunnskunnskap.no is reused. Each question was written, answered blind and fact-checked in separate rounds. The English translation and the explanations are ours, made with AI help; in the test the questions are asked in Norwegian.
