What Is the Regents Exam. The Regents is a series of exams administered in New York to high school students. To earn their Regents Diploma, students must pass at least five different Regents exams with a grade of 65 or better. (This is in addition to earning the required number of credits by completing courses.) Students have about three hours long to complete most Regents exams.
To graduate with what is called a Regents' diploma, students are required to have earned appropriate credits in a number of specific subjects by passing year-long or half-year courses, after which they must earn a score of 65 points or better on the Regents' examination in that subject area.
