NYSED Regents Scoring System

The NYSED Regents Living Environment exam is scored on a 0-100 scale. The scoring system is as follows:

• 1 point for each correct answer
• 0 points for unanswered questions
• 0 points for incorrect answers
• Final score is calculated by dividing total points by the number of questions and multiplying by 100

The exam typically has 85 questions, but this may vary by year. The calculator accounts for these variations.

Example Calculation

Let's walk through an example to demonstrate how the calculator works:

1. Suppose a student answered 72 questions correctly out of 85.
2. Using the formula: (72 / 85) × 100 = 84.71%
3. The calculator would display this as an estimated score of 85.

This example shows how the calculator converts raw scores into the standard 0-100 scale used by NYSED.
