Who grades the ny state regents?
Your social studies teachers grade the exams. They are given a detailed rubric and sample essays to read to familiarize themselves with the state's standards. Then each essay is read by two different teachers. If they are more than one point apart, then a third teacher reads and scores the essay, but that is pretty rare. If the teachers give the essay a score that is only one point apart then the student is given the median score. For example, if one teacher scores an essay a 3 and another scores it a 1, then that essay is read and scored by an additional teacher. If one teacher scores an essay a 3 and another scores it a 2, then the student receives a 2.5. Schools can be audited by the state at any time so teachers are pretty careful about this whole process. Perhaps you guessed really well and that's why you did so well on your exam. Also, higher level thinking often feels like guessing, so perhaps you felt like you were bsing on your essays, but really you were including a lot of critical thinking. That is necessary for a score of 4 or 5 on your essays. Good work!
Will colleges look at NYS regents seriously?
I just got my report card and almost all my regents grades were in the high 90's. I have taken 5 so far this year, 8 in total. I failed Math B and Physics because I rushed through the exam and I just gto so frustrated. Keep in mind these are NYS exams and the hardest state exams in the U.S. Will failing 2 out of 8 exams really hurt my chances of getting into a good college? I want to go to McGill in Montreal, and my transcript would be spotless if it wasnt for this. Will they even look at my regents exams seriously? I would take them over but I wouldnt be able to retake them until January when they have already made their selections.
I got a 2 on the AP World History :(?
Don't worry about it too much. Remember that you can always cancel that 2 on AP World History permanently for a couple of bucks. Also, a 2 isn't awful, just slightly below average (think of it as a C- and not as an F). The important thing is to learn from the mistakes and to do better the next time. For example, I did really well on AP World History exam but I did run out of time on my essays (1hr. on my 1st essay CCOT, 40mins on my 2nd DBQ, and 20mins on my 3rd Compare/Contrast). Now I know for the next AP exams to really practice in budgetting time for the free respons. What gave me my high score was that I knew almost every single multiple choice question, not my essays. That method may not work too well for AP English Lang. or APUSH next year. Also, don't worry about those Regents tests. Colleges will probably not care for them. What you should do is take the SAT Subject Test for Math (Level II is best) and get a good score on that. Don't waste your time trying to get a good score on a state test, colleges will care more for the nation-wide SAT II. P.S. Remember that if you cancel the score you probably will have to explain to the college why the course appears on your transcript but not on your AP scores (you could always just say you did not take the test, there wont be any collegeboard documentation to say other wise ;) Careful though, the school might still have a record that you did, better just be honest. You could also just include the score in your application and an explanation of why you did bad. Personally I would only cancel a score if it was a 1 or if it was going to interfere with an AP scholar award (they use the average score on the tests to give out awards)
Teens: In your school what grades do you take regents?
At my school we have them all in 11th/12th but I am taking the 11th grade ones this year( I'm in 9th grade) and the 12th grade ones in 10th. The reason I am doing this is so in 11th and 12th grade I can take more classes(I'm still taking all the core classes but also all the electives) I am also about 10 years above my grade level so they all will be easy.
Are you considered stupid if you fail tests?
No failing tests is no indication whatsoever of your mental ability. Usually those who thrive in exams are those who have taken the time to review the material carefully and organise their time wisely. That being said, ofcourse intelligence does play a vital role but you said it yourself, u know you can get the grades. I think your problem lies with ure testtaking abilities. I knew many people who were overwhelmed by exams and often found themselves freaking out and failing but that is okay because as long as u realized your problem then there are ways to overcome it, mainly by practise. Just be glad that your problem isnt that you arent smart enough or lack the mental capacity to learn. And so what if you failed a few tests. It really isnt the end of the world. trust me. I had to decline a full scholarship simply because my parent didnt like the university. I learned to move on.. although it is frustrating but give it some time and it will soon fade. Cheer up :)
