52. What is the highest court in the United States?
American Government · System of Government65/20 special consideration question
Accepted answer(s)
- Supreme Court
USCIS officers ask this on the 2025 Civics Test because understanding "american government" is core to how the U.S. system works day to day. Memorize the exact answer above rather than a paraphrase — officers accept the wording USCIS publishes, and "Supreme Court" is the safest phrasing to say out loud in the interview.
This is question 52 of the 2025 Civics Test. See it on uscis.gov. This question is worded the same way on the 2008 Civics Test.
