Hey mr.zinc (I now know your name lol) you probably know me from last year I got 81 on earth science june 2023 I retook this year's august 2024 regents and not gonna lie, the MCQ is a little bit challenging like some of the questions were kinda confusing but I understood them. Thanks for your videos plus you and @GazdonianProductions really helped me understanding Earth Science. I hopefully get a 90(+) I think I did well on the lab practical (like a 13) and I think I got 4-6 questions wrong which isnt that bad ill let you know the scores
Hey! Yes I know you too and remember all your comments :) thanks for the update I haven’t seen the test because it’s summer for me so I’m interested to see it when it releases. Glad you think the videos help! I hope you did awesome!!!
@@ITeachYouScience the multiple choice was kinda hard but the written response was easy. Are you able to answer any questions from the test? I remember a bunch of them.
@@ITeachYouScience Question 9 on the august regents asked like in terms of the water cycle, which of the following shows that preciptation has occured. I could only remember two choices which were (1) grass with frost (4) a frozen lake I chose 1 because frost is like snow and snow is a type of precipitation but choice 4 is bad because precipitation is basically liquid water. I think I got this question wrong. Question 1 on the august regents showed a moon tide graph diagram it had a high tide and low tide it asked which times could be the next high tide on april 10th. The choices were (1) 5:23 AM (2) 6:53 AM (3) 5:23 PM (4) 6:53 PM Now the high tides shown was 6AM and 6:53PM both at April 9th. I calculated the difference between both of these times and I quickly realized the next high tide will be at AM since the high tides info given was 6AM -> 6:53PM so that means the next one should be AM. When I calculated the time difference, it was 12 hours so I added 12 hours to 6:53PM and I got 6:53AM so choice 2. On Part B-1 on question 45-48 (I think?) It was talking about a rift in Africa and some plate or wtv. The first question from the blurb was talking about which of the following natural disasters caused a crack in the rifts? (Question 45) (1) Tsunamis (2) Floods (3) Downwarp (4) Earthquakes This is an obvious question, it's 4 earthquakes but what is downwarp? This was never introduced in any of the earth science regents it's very dumb. Question 46 (part of the blurb) asked which rocks will be formed if it was created inside of the rifts the answer choices were (1) Volcanic (2) Plutonic (3) Clastic (4) Bioclastic I chose (1) Volcanic because aren't volcanic rocks just rocks from the earth surface like volcanos rifts and that. I was eagered to choose plutonic because plutonic rocks comes from deep inside earth's surface (when I took the test I thought it came outside of the earth). On the written response one of the questions (it's on part C) I think it was question 67. The blurb contained 5 questions (yes 5 questions) and this question was talking about a rock having fine and coarse crystals and it asked in terms of the cooling rate, explain why coarse crystals took a long time to cool down (I don't remember the question exactly but it asked in terms of the cooling rate and to compare between fine and corase) what I said is that coarse crystals are from plutonic rocks and plutonic rocks take a very long time to cool while volcanic rocks contains fine crystals which takes a short period of time to cool down. There was also some interesting things in the written response, it was talking about chicago going to be destroyed due to the formation of chicago, it was saying that like chicago was created by glaciers 20k years ago and 12k years ago the glaciers melted and whats left was the plates and now the plates are slowly drifting to canada (this was in part B-2)
Man I hope you have an amazing blessed day because I’m retaking my regents tomorrow and because of you, im feeling so much better about passing and doing well. Your doing the Lords work out here😭✊🏼
Bro you explain better than my teacher in the whole year, thanx so much i have my regents tomorrow and you are giving me hope with this😭🙌🙌❤, ill let you know if i pass tho
retaking the regents tomorrow, wish me luck! i’ve been watching all of your videos and they’ve been really helping do you have any more tips i could use to help
It depends on each year you can look up the conversion guides and check but I really wouldn’t think like that I would just do as much preparing as you can and not worry what you need to pass. Just do as best as you can studying.
Im in 9th grade (13 years old) and homeschooled. This is my favorite channel 😍 for science. You should literally be a payed teacher. My old school would have a lot better with a teacher like you
I would check out my earth science playlist and watch as many as you can!! Especially the full exam ones but I have tons of other review ones that are me teaching the content. Go check those out!
I have videos like that! Go into my earth science regents playlist and look at my 5 part series on the full regents overview! That covers it! Good luck :)
This helped me so much! On my school account I binged some of your videos. you and my amazing earth sci teacher were the best. I got a 99! (i was so close noooooooo)
thank you Mr. zinc! I passed with a 98!! Idk if you remember me but I was the one that asked you to make this video thank you for staying true to your word. You can’t believe how lucky I am to have your videos, thank you so much you explain everything in a beautiful understandable way. Couldn’t be more thank you so much. 😊
I would go back to like 2023 and work forward maybe? That’s a lot of them… if you finish all of those then you can go back before that. The newest one June 24 still isn’t out yet . Still waiting!
Now that I look at this regents I took last year it’s very easy (I took a practice regents on this I got a 95) I got pretty lucky but I didn’t have enough time to study the other units
If you think of the curve like your elbow, the outside of the curve is like the outside of your elbow, and the inside of the curve is like the inside of your elbow (kinda hard to explain in text lol)
Yes! The official answer keys have not been released yet which means I’m not allowed to publicly do a video yet. The moment that releases to the public I’m going to make it! Stay tuned :)
