@stier
They would ask you to sing "The Germany Song". However, you should avoid singing first and second stanza

Folks.. none of the stuff you all mentioned was asked,.. no singing and no rules 
.. the lady was nice ..she simply took the documents and asked for the payment and said we shud wait around 3 months to hear from them...
did any one also go through a similar story while applying?

Hello,
So far my knowledge goes, you can expect yourself to face some questions once they call you after 3 months. I have no idea what they could ask, since I am far away from being eligible for it (have completed only 4 yrs).
Maybe other experts in this forum having real time experiences can guide you better in this.
Good Luck!

@Stier,
If you have read Posts related to this topic.
If you have done Integrationskurs(B1-Test), then they will forward your papers for checking.
Then, in Hessen, it takes almost 6-12 months to get response(Zusicherung) from Darmstadt and you may count 3-6 months for the Entlassung(cancellation) of your current Nationality from your Consulate.
But, remember, after 3 months( from 01.09.08), there will be a citizenship test, which would be based upon Orientationskurs (about German history, culture....)
Just check the so-called 100-Questions and prepare, if you are asked for such a test.
Gruss,
A.T

@Stier,
now you told the exact situation 
One may just laugh, that as you did not do Orientationskurs, so they hanged you for this course. Otherwise, your processing could atleast have started. Anyhow, this would have only helped you to save this 3 month period.
In every situation, as your case would not end before 01.09.2008, therefore, they asked you for this Einbürgurerungstest(based upon Orientationskurs or you may call, its just rename of this course ). So, prepare yourself for that well in time(as you did not do the Orientationskurs).
You may search focus.de or google for 100 Questions. Also, go to them and ask for the Einbürgerungstest. If you think, you may ask them to allow you for the Einbürgerunskurs and then go for this Einbürgerungstest.
I hope, now, you got the info in time. But, this was possible only, after you wrote your case exactly.
Gruss,
A.T

Dear A.T,
I was not asked to give any test at all. she dint ask for any Orientation kurs etc .. she said she wil contact me in 2-3 months and i am taking the worst case scenario of 3 months and that too i dnt fall under the 1 sept category.. so why should i go myself and ask to give the test when she herself dint tell me to take it. I assume she very well knows my case and would have told me while she was taking my papers.

@stier,
according to the law, if you dont get the Nationality-Certificate till 01.09.2008, you are entitled for such a Einbürgerungstest.
As Behörde, at this time, dont have exact details about this Kurs/test, therefore, they too are waiting.
I ask you? Did you get Deutsch-Zusicherung uptil now or just submitted your application at your local Einbürgerungsamt?
If you did not get Deutsch-Zusicherung, then you should wait till you are asked to appear for such a test.
Viel Glück,
A.T
