    Just finished my interview today. Figured I should share my experience.
    My interview was on Saturday Jan 24th 2015 9:00AM at Fairfax, Virginia. I arrived with my spouse at about 8:10AM, there was only one person in front of us at the security check so we went in right away. At the USCIS office, I handed in my interview notice form to the front desk officer, he told me to wait. The waiting room was pretty much empty this early in the morning, only 5-6 other people were waiting before me. About 15 minutes later I was called and was escorted into an interview room. I stood to swore to tell the truth, the officer asked for my green card and driver's license, then he started my test right away.
    The history questions:
    1) What's the national anthem of the United States?
    2) What's the rule of law?
    3) What ocean is on the west coast?
    4) What happened on September 11th?
    5) What does the 13 strips on the flag represents?
    6) How old do you have to be to vote?
    Reading:
    How many senators are in the United States?
    Writing:
    There are one hundred senators.
    My officer told me congratulations you passed - he talked super fast so the whole test only lasted for less than a minute.
    He asked if the person I was with was my spouse so I said yes, he was glad to hear that and told me that's pretty important. He then read to/asked me if the information on my N400 form were correct, birth date, work place, address, trip outside US, parents' birth place, whether I was still married to the same person, etc. Then he went over the long list on the N400 form to check off each question: whether I was a criminal, whether I was in any dangerous organizations, etc., I said no to all, and he asked me if I would be loyal to the US, if I would fight in a war for US, etc., I said yes to all. I signed the the last two pages of my N400 form, including two passport photos I filed along with the form. Then my officer stamped "approved" onto the first page of my N400, gave me a piece of paper that said I passed, and told me I will receive my ceremony letter in about a month and that if I wish to travel in between this period of time I can just use my green card.
    The entire interview lasted for about 12 minutes, very nice officer, very pleasant experience. I brought plenty of documentations but my officer did not ask to see any. While he escorted me out, he said that my case was very straight forward and pretty easy.
    Just give yourself plenty of time to memorize the test questions and make sure to review your N400 form before your interview. It will make you feel much better during the process and make a good impression. Good luck everyone
