Living Environment - Summer Regents Exam Review
* If you plan on taking the August Living Environment exam, DON'T wait until just before the exam to begin studying! Start now while the material is still fresh in your mind and review in small chunks (10-20 minutes of focused practice) each day (best bet) or at least a few times each week between now and the exam. Practice both multiple choice AND short answer questions.
If you take the time to prepare, you will be successful on the exam!

Review Books
- Consider purchasing a review book to study from. Most review books contain content review, sample questions by topic and a few full practice Regents exams. Has the advantage of being able to be highlighted in, have words underlined, and have notes written alongside questions or key ideas.
