I graduated NYS high school in 1984 and found the regents exams to be quite easy - although I was perhaps only one of two in my small high school to think so. The only exam I scored lower than 90 on was French (I blew the essay).
Your mother sounds like she is or was an amazing woman.
Yes, she truly was an AMAZING woman; brilliant, beautiful ( she looked like Ava Gardner ), extremely knowledgeable, very talented, kind, a true CONSERVATIVE, and a wonderful mother.
Congrats on doing so well of the Regents exams!
Not to denigrate you, in any way, nor your accomplishments, but by the time you took them, these tests were quite watered down. And by now, they are excruciatingly laughable, so dumbed down that they certainly are NOT on a high school level; hell, not even on a middle school from when I was in school!
