About this quiz

What this quiz covers

Explore the Constitution’s structure (Articles I–VII), the Bill of Rights (Amendments I–X), and how these texts shape federal power and individual liberties.

You’ll practice matching clauses to their meaning, identifying which branch holds specific powers, and separating what the Constitution says from what people often assume it says.

Format, difficulty, and how to play

Each question has 4 options and there’s no timer, so you can read carefully and learn as you go.

Difficulty is mixed: you’ll see straightforward definitions alongside trickier scenarios that test application and close reading. You can also choose your question count and difficulty before starting to tailor the session to quick review or deeper practice.

Identify which amendment protects a right in a real-world scenario
Distinguish enumerated powers, reserved powers, and implied powers
Spot common confusions (e.g., “freedom” vs. “protections from government action”)
Practice Article-by-Article knowledge: Congress, President, Courts, and federalism
Strengthen recall of key terms like due process, probable cause, and establishment

Common pitfalls to avoid

Many misses come from mixing up similar-sounding rights (speech vs. press, search vs. seizure) or assuming the Bill of Rights originally applied to states the same way it applies today.

Watch for absolute-sounding choices: the documents often set standards and limits rather than blanket permissions, so the best answer usually reflects the precise wording and scope.
