Arizona high school students will be required to pass a civics test in order to graduate, thanks to legislation that passed the state House and Senate in a single day.

The 100-question test isn't an ad hoc endeavor solely made for students. It's a first-of-its-kind law utilizing the same U.S. Immigration and Naturalization test taken by undocumented individuals seeking citizenship.

While groups backing the bill cite lackluster civics scores - and a 2011 Annenberg Public Policy Center survey that found only 15 percent of Americans could identify John Roberts as chief justice of the Supreme Court - others question whether it aims to single out Hispanic voters, much like Southern black voters were given complicated quizzes in the 1960s.

Another concern is how schools will implement the curriculum, or if lesson plan changes need to be made. Aside from the fact that social studies and history teachers nationwide already teach material, they will be given full control over how the material and test will be given.

Take a look at a few of questions that await Arizona students. Answers can be found at the bottom.
