    My niece took it today. I’ve been tutoring her for it.

    (Yes, I know that by talking or otherwise interacting to my niece I am a horrible person who purposely disregards the boundaries of tznius and taharas hamachaneh.)

    Wolf: I hadn’t seen you in a while. I thought you were burning already.

    No doubt I will for the sin of helping my niece with her regents.

    Questions I still haven’t figured out:

    If some person is making a recipe with 3/4 of a teaspoon of something, and she is making it five times, how many TABLESPOONS does she need? (3 teaspoons/tablespoon)

    Also:

    If someone exceeded 95000 on a test out of 125000 people, what percentile is she in?

    76th percentile. Glad you didn’t take the regent today! 🙂

    Lol youngbubby – I did take it!! And 76 is right. I didn’t know it but it was multiple choice and all the other choices were less than 40, so I did it logically. 🙂

    3/4 * 5 = 3.75/3= 1.25. 76th percentile. Was that question multiple choice?

    congrats bekitzur! I thought the questions you posted were examples, not actual questions, and that they were simple! Then my daughter came home and said she messed up on that one, so I just ate my words! Do you know that passing on the algebra regent this year is 31%?!

    Oh, it went down then! It used to be 33% 🙂
