I failed regents how bad will this look on cuny

For the regents in geometry i got 64 im so pissed off. And for english i already passed it by retook it and got a poor score. Im so angry at geometry and regents scores because i wanted to pass them and get a good score one time and one time only. How bad will this look on my application for college. If i retake it in august and get a much higher score will it make up for these scores.

If your GPA and grades for Geometry and English are good I don’t think it will be a major problem. Everyone said the Geometry regents has been especially tough the past two years.

My grades for them is 80

My grades on the classes are 80. But will retaking them and getting a good score be enough to outweight the june scores.

At our school, if you retake the regents and get a better score it replaces the old grade. There is no notation of the earlier score. The final grade remains as is. Maybe the policy at your school is the same?

@auk8917 I’m not sure if you’re aware or not but it looks like they’ll be rescoring the geometry regents exam that students took in June. I guess at least one of the questions had two answers or no answer at all and they’re giving points back. I’m not sure exactly how this will work, but maybe it’ll push your grade up a bit :slight_smile:
