How much do New York State Regents exams count?

<p>I was just wondering this, because I doubt NYU Stern looked at my atrocious regents examinations, I just didn't care at all for them, I guess, and I still got into Stern. Okay, here is a rough representation of my grades. ( I didn't and still don't care to remember, but here is an estimate.)</p>

<p>Earth Science- 91
Math A- 95
Biology- 87
Chemistry- 73
Math B- 88
Social Studies- 96
English- 88
Physics- 87 </p>

<p>Does NYU really count regents grades? I mean a 73, I orginally thought would put the rope around my neck?</p>

<p>I've heard that they look for regents in the 90s but I don't think it's true...I doubt they look at them as more than a final</p>

<p>Can they help at all? I got an award (scholarship) for my high regent marks.</p>

<p>Biology - 94
Hebrew - 91
Math A - 100
Global History - 94
Chemistry - 89
Math B - 95
Spanish - 100
US History - 99
English - 98</p>

<p>But I feel like there's no point of them...</p>

<p>I got that scholarship too!</p>

<p>i doubt they'll count that much unless you got a 100 on all of them...or like 20s on all of them, which in that case you might be having bigger problems to worry about...</p>

<p>but i think we all know regents are pretty easy to do well on. maybe the only ones that might require a tiny bit of studying are math b and physics...but depends on the person. </p>

<p>congrats on getting into stern!</p>

<p>Thank you, but maybe, take it from me? They do not matter, and my ****ing chemistry teacher almost made getting into college impossible, but I should be grateful that I got in! Bumppppppppppppp. What do other people think?</p>

<p>Oh don't worry about it. 73 in Chem's not that bad, I got a 68 lmao. And I skipped out on Physics because of a film program, but I explained the situation to them and they understood.</p>

<p>hahhaa, chemistry is a waste of time, could not have said it better bimachris, and if you argue that we need chemistry to make medications........well 1/3 of those medications come directly from a rainforest anyway haha.</p>

<p>i'm a prospective chemistry major =(</p>

<p>Lmao sorry guys, I have a vendetta against all things math and science. Despite my asian-ness</p>
