Kayf -- I agree with you, but I would also note that the NYS Regents exams have been "dumbed down" considerably over the past 15 years or so (with a few exceptions) in order to accomodate the goal of graduating 100% of NY high school students with a Regents diploma (in other words a college prep diploma). In addition to lowering rigor for the academically stronger student, this policy has had the effect of driving up drop-out rates in some districts.
