No, the answer is not to take a test. Taking and passing a naturalization test is a requirement to becoming a U.S. citizen. However, there are other requirements as well. Some of the requirements include being at least 18 years old, having a green card for a certain period of time, residing continuously in the U.S., being of good moral character, demonstrating basic knowledge of English and U.S. government, and taking an Oath of Allegiance to the United States.
