[quote=Anonymous]In NY, you have to take regents exams -they are state-wide finals everyone in the state takes, and then score factors into your final grade for the course. I think it is such a good idea to have that type of standardization. If a kid from a poor old mill town in upstate NY gets a 95 on regents bio, and a kid at Stuyvesant gets a 95 on bio, and a kid at an inner city all black HS gets a 95 on bio- that shows that they are relatively on par with each other academically. They are phasing out the regents exams (for equity) but I think it is such a misstep - other states should be implementing the same instead. [/quote]
