To my chemistry students:
I have came across this review packet made by a NYS chemistry teacher on the list server. It follows the NYS core curriculum pretty closely and list the most important concepts and skills that you need to know. You can download it here in pdf form and should serve you as a guideline for your review.
Good Luck!

Please keep the following information in your mind as you ramp up on your own for the final count down to Regent Exam:
• Living Environment Regent Exam will be held on Tuesday June 21, 2011 at 8:00 AM.
• Chemistry Regent Exam will be held on Wednesday June 22 at 12:00 PM.
• For Living Environment Students, there are two useful review resources: 1. Oswego School District Regent Preps Review (Click Here); and 2: Living Environment Boot Camp Survival Guide (Click Here).
• On the day of your science Regent Exam, be sure to bring your student ID (w/ photo), 2~3 pencils, eraser, and a non-graphing scientific calculator (for chemistry), and your Regent invitation (if you have one).
• Be sure to return all the textbooks to the teachers that you signed out from - otherwise you will get the bill over the summer.
