How to Study for the Living Environment Regents
1) Take this full exam
2) Grade that exam here (it's very helpful seeing how the Regents grades free response
3) Convert your score here. This gives you your score out of 100
4) Reflect. Was there anything unfamiliar? What do you need to focus on when you study?
5) Study time. I recommend completing this in this order

Cramming Resources:
Regents Boot Camp
-A review sheet covering pretty much all the major concepts for the exam. Good for cramming
Regents Labs Review
-There are 4 labs that we completed throughout the year that are mandated by the state and specific questions about these labs will show up on the exam. This is a quick review of the major concepts learned during those labs
Regents Exam Prep Center
-The summaries of topics on this website are really great. Don't spend too much time on the practice problems - many are in a format not really used by the Regents
Past Regents Exams
-If you are shooting for a 90 or above on the exam (required to graduate "with honors" on the Regents), completing numerous practice exams, star-to-finish, is a must. I would suggest completing the newer exams first, as the formatting and questioning style are more similar to our exam
