NYS Chemistry Regents Exam - I passed with a 96, can I retake the exam even though I didn't fail?

Question

I would really love a 100. I know I can do it.

Answer 1

yeah.

good job i hope i passed it...

Answer 2

Somebody pays attention in Chemistry

Answer 3

I got a 96 as well, and while I'm quite angry because I missed one of the easiest questions on the test (what neutralizes Ba?: two chlorine atoms) I don't believe I should retake it to get the 98 I should've gotten, and I know it's not worth it to get the 100 anyway... colleges will simply see it as a lucky shot at the 100, and besides, as I see it... it's 4 points in one class, don't fret about it. Hope it helps hearing it from a fellow student.

Answer 4

alright lets get straight to it, people stop trying to befriend this person, they passed with a 96 when honestly most of us were lucky to pass this exam, stop congratulating them, your truly dumb, keep your grade, it was probably top 5 or 3 % in the country, in my opinion this is just a way for a person to brag about their score (if that really was their score), so if you could never post again, know that you gained no friends by saying that you're smart on this website, good luck on getting some friends other than imaginery ones

Answer 5

Yes, you can take a regents as many times as you want - there's no limit.

And also, HOLY c**p, ARE YOU A GENIUS?!?! I dont know what I got but i think I'll be lucky if i get a 70.

Answer 6

i think you should do it, if you are confident enough. [AND if you are not the kind of dumper person who forgets everything easily.

i got a 98 because my english sucks n dun even know the meaning of "recover". if i'm staying in NY, i'll definitely take it n see if i can get a 100.

If you have the chance, do it.

Answer 7

just keep your grade... you have a 96 on chemistry regents.. im lucky if i pass it lol.. so ya theres no point in taking it over your scores almost perfect

Answer 8

Absolutely you can retake; however, if you do worse the second time, both the higher score and the lower score will appear on your transcript.  Since you might forget some of the material or lose your edge between now and mid-August (the next administration of the exam), you should carefully weigh your choices.
