Thanks

If you live in Chicago area then chances are high that you will get it very soon as I have heard that Chicago office does oath at least once in a week.

If you live out of Chicago, just like me, then you have to wait to have oath scheduled in your city. I filed my N-400 on September 2012, I did my interview in Chicago on March 2013 and I am inline for oath since 1st week of April. I have to wait until oath will be scheduled in my city.
