The following site was very useful for me and most of the questions came from either of these two.
1.
http://lbbd.gocitizen.co.uk/library/ (30 day trial version free, pay for full database access)
2. "How to Pass the Life in the UK Test, from Which?" is available in libraries. The book comes with a CD and preparing the sample tests in the CD helps a lot.
To my experience the two are genuine and i noticed similar questions in the test.

Hi All,
Would if be enough If I do all (20) practice test from 'Life in the UK Test' Study Guide for passing the test?
There are 7 chapters in the book that I have ignored, I beleive 20 practice test are made of that only(guessing).
I have seen the web site link over here for the practice test that I will go through, but just wanted to know if I need to do read anything else.
As per your experience what should I do?
Any advice/ tips.

I only read the TSO Life in the United Kingdom, Passing the life in the UK Test, Official practice questions and answers and I passed today. It only took me 7 minutes to complete the 24 questions. If you are a member of your local library, you can also register free online to use the GoCitizen practice questions and answers free for 30days. Good luck.

Can anyone please suggest if material in TSO's official book "Life in the United Kingdom A Journey to Citizenship Handbook - 2nd Edition" is matching with the available copyrighted
book which is free to download?

Just a heads up - theres a really good app on iTunes that you can download as well, which has sample test questions and the right answers. I did that, and practised regularly on my commutes in the morning. In fact, I learnt more from that than trying to read the book! Highly recommend it.

Its also available on the Androoid market. Search for Life in the UK. There is an official app by The Stationery Office Ltd for £4.99 I used this to practise and it is quite helpful

Does the test only cover unit 2-6? The links above only seem to focus on that. Where as the book has units 1-8.

The test only covers sections 2 to 6 and the android app also covers the same sections. i do not know about other apps.
The additional sections in the book are not included in the test but are general knowledge sections. You can skip it if you want but it does make for interesting reading
