NYSED June 2026 Regents Examination Schedule

For 2026 Algebra II Regents prep, focus on the Next Generation blueprint: Functions carries the largest credit range, followed by Algebra, Statistics and Probability, and Number and Quantity. The operational exam has 36 questions and 82 total credits, with Part I multiple choice and Parts II-IV constructed response. Passing is a scale score of 65, not 65 percent correct, and June 10, 2026 is the scheduled first June administration of the Next Generation Algebra II Regents.

Sample NY Regents Algebra II Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the NY Regents Algebra II exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 108+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1Which expression is equivalent to 16^(3/4)?
A.6
B.8
C.12
D.64
Explanation: A rational exponent can be read as a root followed by a power. Since the fourth root of 16 is 2, 16^(3/4) = 2^3 = 8.
2What is the product (3 + 2i)(4 - i)?
A.10 + 5i
B.14 + 5i
C.10 + 11i
D.14 - 11i
Explanation: Multiply each term: 12 - 3i + 8i - 2i^2. Since i^2 = -1, the expression becomes 12 + 5i + 2 = 14 + 5i.
3Which value is equal to i^23?
A.-i
B.-1
C.1
D.i
Explanation: Powers of i repeat every four: i, -1, -i, 1. Since 23 has remainder 3 when divided by 4, i^23 = i^3 = -i.
4For x > 0, which expression is equivalent to (x^(1/3))(x^(5/6))?
A.x^(1/2)
B.x^(7/6)
C.x^(5/18)
D.x^2
Explanation: When multiplying powers with the same base, add the exponents. The sum 1/3 + 5/6 equals 2/6 + 5/6 = 7/6.
5The equation x^2 - 6x + 13 = 0 has which solutions?
A.3 + 2i and 3 - 2i
B.-3 + 2i and -3 - 2i
C.6 + 13i and 6 - 13i
D.No solutions
Explanation: Using the quadratic formula, x = (6 +/- sqrt(36 - 52))/2 = (6 +/- sqrt(-16))/2. This gives x = (6 +/- 4i)/2 = 3 +/- 2i.
6Which expression is equivalent to x^3 + 27?
A.(x + 3)(x^2 - 3x + 9)
B.(x + 3)(x^2 + 3x + 9)
C.(x - 3)(x^2 + 3x + 9)
D.(x - 3)(x^2 - 3x + 9)
Explanation: The sum of cubes formula is a^3 + b^3 = (a + b)(a^2 - ab + b^2). With a = x and b = 3, x^3 + 27 = (x + 3)(x^2 - 3x + 9).
7If f(x) = (x - 5)(x + 2), what are the zeros of f?
A.-5 and 2
B.-2 and 5
C.2 and 5
D.-5 and -2
Explanation: Zeros occur when a factor equals zero. The equations x - 5 = 0 and x + 2 = 0 give x = 5 and x = -2.
8When p(x) = x^3 - 4x^2 + 2x + 7 is divided by x - 2, what is the remainder?
A.-5
B.1
C.3
D.15
Explanation: By the Remainder Theorem, the remainder when dividing by x - 2 is p(2). Compute 8 - 16 + 4 + 7 = 3.
9For x != 3, which expression is equivalent to (x^2 - 9)/(x - 3)?
A.x - 3
B.x + 3
C.x^2 + 3
D.1/(x + 3)
Explanation: Factor the numerator as (x - 3)(x + 3). Since x is not 3, the common factor x - 3 cancels, leaving x + 3.
10What is the solution of 3/(x - 1) = 2, where x != 1?
A.1/2
B.3/2
C.5/2
D.4
Explanation: Multiply both sides by x - 1 to get 3 = 2x - 2. Then 5 = 2x, so x = 5/2.

About the NY Regents Algebra II Exam

The Regents Examination in Algebra II is New York State's high school Algebra II assessment. The current Next Generation version measures the New York State Next Generation Mathematics Learning Standards across Number and Quantity, Algebra, Functions, and Statistics and Probability, with modeling embedded across standards. Students complete a three-hour school-administered exam with multiple-choice and constructed-response questions, using an administration-specific scale-score conversion chart.

Exam sponsor: New York State Education Department (NYSED), Office of State Assessment. The requirements and fees below concern the certification or admission exam, separate from our free practice resources.

Assessment

The Next Generation Regents Examination in Algebra II has Part I with 24 multiple-choice questions worth 2 credits each, Part II with 8 constructed-response questions worth 2 credits each, Part III with 3 constructed-response questions worth 4 credits each, and Part IV with 1 constructed-response question worth 6 credits, for 36 questions and 82 total credits. This practice bank uses 100 original four-option multiple-choice questions to rehearse the same readiness skills.

Time Limit

Three hours under standard NYSED Regents administration directions; the June 2026 Algebra II Regents is scheduled for Wednesday, June 10, 2026 at 9:15 a.m.

Passing Score

A scale score of 65 is the Regents passing standard. NYSED uses a 0-100 scale, and the Algebra II raw score must be converted with the conversion chart for the specific administration.

Exam / Certification Fees

No direct NYSED student exam fee published for enrolled students; Regents are school-administered New York State assessments.

Exam sponsor website

Reported exam pass rate: Not published as one current statewide Algebra II pass rate. NYSED publishes Regents results through state reporting systems by subject, administration, cohort, school, district, and student group rather than as one single current pass-rate figure on the Algebra II assessment page.

NY Regents Algebra II: Suggested Study Strategy

1Prioritize functions because the official blueprint assigns Functions the largest credit range.
2Practice translating among equations, graphs, tables, and contexts; Regents items often test more than one cluster at a time.
3For constructed response, write enough algebraic work to show the method, not just the final answer.
4Use the graphing calculator strategically for regression, intersections, trigonometric graphs, and model checking, but set up the math first.
5Review conditional probability, normal distributions, residuals, and sampling language because these topics often feel less routine than equation solving.
6Use the Next Generation reference sheet during practice so formulas for series, trigonometry, probability, and exponential growth become familiar.
