Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

The examinations were cruel and unfair. Some of the examinees would purposely turn the immigrants down, due to racism. I think it was necessary to have some sort of examination, but not in the way they did it. Also sometimes they would force the immigrants to give them money or valued items in exchange for U.S. citizenship, instead of basing it off of the immigrants health.
