I have Chemistry, U.S. History, and the infamous 6 hour English coming up. What final exams are you taking?

The English test isn't so bad, its broken up over two days. Regents exams still suck though, good thing I'm a senior, where my hardest class has me sculpting bears out of soapstone.

The English isn't really that hard, its just long, boring, and hurts my hand after writing so much. My fear is that we get something like Roger Ascham writing about snow for the essay on controlling ideas. It took me like 3 hours to do that practice one. I don't care who you are. Writing about fluffy snow blowing across a field of hard crusted snow is not interesting.

I wish I could take the Regents. Our school makes us take special exams because the regents are too easy :(

i don't want to sound like i'm bragging, but i personally thought the regents exams were a joke.
they were extremely easy, especially with the aid of those red/yellow review books.
just wait until AP's and college... they make the regents look like a walk in the park.

No one said they were hard ;) I was just wondering who was taking them. The part I of english today was so rediculous. If I didn't ace it I'd be extremely surprised. I know what your saying about AP and all that. After 2 hour Regents finals for Crs I, II, III, (where you could omit like 6 out of 36 problems and half were multiple choice) this year I had precalc. Dang, 4.5 hours, no omits, no multiple choice, on EVERYTHING we did this year. I didn't even have time to finish it. I pulled out a 69 on the final after breezing through the last 3 years.
