<p>Hello, I have performed fairly well on all NYS Regent's Exams this year and was wondering if they are something that I should put on applications. My grades for the exams I have taken are as follows:</p>
<p>English: 98
Spanish: 99
Algebra: 96
Geometry: 94
Alg 2/Trig: 95
Global: 95
US History: 99
Earth Science: 98
Biology: 93
Chemistry: 90</p>
<p>Do these exams even matter or are they considered sort of a joke?</p>
<p>tbh I don’t think they matter at all. I went to school in New York as well and no one I know put the regents on their app (even those who got 100s). So no, I don’t think you should put them on your app.</p>
<p>Congrats - looks like you will get an Advanced Regents diploma with Honors. The scores will be on your transcript… My rising senior’s gc said she would include in her rec the fact that my son is a candidate for a diploma with honors because they don’t actually award it till graduation. That might make a difference.</p>
<p>I do agree that you don’t need to mention it on the apps unless state testing scores are asked for.</p>
