Honestly as somebody who’s done one of these tests, they’re genuinely not very hard but they do require you to do a few hours of prep. The actual application though is very long and tedious asking you to obtain information from the government only to copy it into the application form and send it back to the government. Needless tedium really. Not to mention having to find character witnesses who have to work in specific professions and must have known you for years.
