<p>Tomorrow I have US and since I know my essays will be pretty much perfect I'm just doing multiple choice sections from nysedregents.org. </p>

<p>So far:
48/50 on January 2012 -_-
50/50 on June 2011
49/50 on January 2011 sdliughsdg</p>

<p>I also have Japanese on Monday and Chemistry next Thursday I believe? Or Wednesday.</p>

2

<p>Chemistry is Wednesday! I take chemistry regents too</p>

3

<p>48/50 on August 2010. I really want a 100!</p>

4

<p>Haha, I’ve been stuck around 48-49 for US too. But I usually rush through and finish in like 15 minutes which causes me to make stupid mistakes.</p>

<p>Physics was meh. Some really dumb questions that the regents throws in there messed me up. Based on the curve they posted and what I think I got wrong, I should end up with a 93-94ish score.</p>

<p>English on Friday will be interesting to say the least.</p>

5

<p>What is the regents exam?</p>

6

<p>It’s an exam that you should be thankful for not having to take…I’m thankful :)</p>

7

<p>^Is it a state-wide exam? We have stae-wide exams where I live. We take them in late May-early June…</p>

8

<p>Yes it’s a state wide exam based in the courses you take.</p>

9

<p>Finished Global today. Lost my steam on the second essay, but the questions and the first essay were fine. Solid 90+.</p>

10

<p>What’s the physics curve?</p>

<p>& no english for me!</p>

<p>I just got a 50/50 on the June 2011; I don’t know why that one was so easy. I hope the real thing is like that, a 100 would be cool.</p>

12

<p>I’m definitely going for a 100 in U.S. History tomorrow. I got a 99 in Global last year and I can still remember what question I got wrong.</p>

13

<p>Who here is taking the Geometry &/or Living Environment Regents? I am freaking out about the Geometry regents.</p>

14

<p>Okay, these are all of my scores from practice today (out of 50):</p>

<p>48, 50, 49, 48, 50, 49, 49, 49, 49, 49.</p>

<p>I always get one wrong.</p>

15

<p>Why do so many? lol. I’ve only done 4 and my scores were 48/49/48/50. I’ll be fine with a 97/98 even though that 100 looks so much better.</p>

16

<p>I normally do at least 20 old regents exams as practice. This year I’m behind; I’ve only done 10 or so.</p>

17

<p>The MC only take like 15 minutes each :P</p>

<p>But I’m done. I guess I’ll be fine with a 99 xD</p>

<p>I love how Regentsprep goes down every year without fail LOL</p>

18

<p>It’s down? Hahaha, that always cracks me up.</p>

<p>Today I took the Global regents. I felt well prepared for it, but a lot of the content was from Global 1, therefore making it a bit more difficult. The essays were like a Christmas gift, I feel like I did well. </p>

<p>For the thematic essay [geographic features] I wrote about rivers and mountains. I talked about the mountains in the Incan Empire; they adapted by using terrace farming and policies of subsistence since altitude and isolation prevented them from interacting with other civilizations. For rivers, I wrote about Great Britain and its success. Great Britain was able to create a leading navy, they traded, cultural diffusion, etc.</p>

<p>For the DBQ [leaders] I discussed Shi Huangdi and Peter the Great of Russia. Did anyone else feel like all of the information you needed for the essay was given in the documents? I think an eighth grader could have taken the essay part of the exam and received a great grade. </p>

<p>I feel like Mastery is in reach. </p>

<p>I still have to take the Geometry regents [totally freaking out, only looking to pass] and the Earth Science Regents. For the practical, I received 13/16. How did you guys do on the Lab Practical?</p>

20

<p>I think I got a 15/16 on the practical. I can’t really remember since I took it in 8th grade.</p>

<p>I have U.S. History in the morning, which should be pretty easy.</p>

<p>I wouldn’t worry too much about the Geometry regents, by the way. It’s not too bad, especially if you’ve taken previous exams as practice. I know my year was like the second year to take it, so I only had a test or two to practice with.</p>
