New York State requires students to pass five Regents exams to earn a standard high school diploma: one in English Language Arts, one in a math subject, one in a science subject, one in U.S. History & Government, and one in Global History & Geography. Advanced and Honors designations are available for students who exceed the minimum requirements.
For AP exams, starting at least 8 to 12 weeks before the test date allows sufficient time to build skills and complete practice exams. For Regents, 6 to 10 weeks of focused preparation is typically effective. However, the earlier you start, the more thorough and relaxed your preparation can be.
