Regents Grading Day 1
Grading is progressing and, as predicted, those who wrote detailed answers that focused on the keywords earned a very good score, significantly higher, on average, than those who did not use test-taking skills. Thank you very much for making that your own way of taking tests from now on; your better test grades will prove that to you time after time.
There were careless errors from those who could not bother to apply the tried and true test skills of identifying and using the question key words, predicting answers, drawing pictures, etc. I'll list some examples later.
So far there is only ONE perfect score (massive use of test-taking skills!) from our classes though six students scored 41/41 on parts A and B1.
Overall, this was a relatively easy and unchallenging LE Regents so, those who were careful, generally scored quite well.
