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.
