Physical Science: Physics — raw to scale

Convert a Physical Science: Physics raw score

The exam is already selected. Choose the administration your child actually sat — the list holds the 1 sittings NYSED has published a chart for, most recent first — then enter the raw score.

Make sure this is the right exam. New York gives two different exams whose names share a word: Physical Science: Physics (this page, scored out of 50) and Physical Setting: Physics. They have different charts, and their raw-score ranges overlap, so nothing on this page can catch the mix-up for you. Sat the Physical Setting: Physics Regents instead? Use its chart → The exam title is printed on the front cover of the test booklet and on the score report.

Careful: Physical Setting: Physics is a different exam with a different chart, and their raw scores overlap. Check the title on the front of the test booklet.

Loading the published charts for this exam…

There is no chart for an exam that has not been given yet. NYSED publishes the raw-to-scale conversion for an administration only after that administration has been scored, and the numbers genuinely move between sittings: the Algebra I raw total dropped from 86 points to 82 in June 2024, Algebra II did the same in June 2026, and the Level 3 range in Algebra I ran 65–73 in August 2015 and 65–79 in June 2016. So this tool reads published charts and nothing else. Anyone telling a student what raw score will earn a 65 at a future sitting is making it up.

Scores at or above 65 are shown in red — 65 is the passing score in New York, and 85 is what the State calls passing with distinction. This chart applies to the June 2026 administration only.

Questions

Physical Science: Physics scoring, answered

What raw score do you need to pass the Physical Science: Physics Regents?

On the June 2026 administration it took 23 raw points out of 50 to reach a scale score of 65. That number belongs to that sitting and to no other: across the 1 published Physical Science: Physics charts we hold, the raw points needed for a 65 have ranged from 23 to 23. Use the calculator above with the exact administration your child sat.

Does this work for the next Physical Science: Physics Regents?

No. NYSED publishes a conversion chart only after an administration has been scored, so no chart exists for a sitting that has not happened. The charts here run from June 2026 to June 2026. If you want to know how much the requirement has moved between sittings, the curve history page shows the raw points needed for a 65 at every published administration — which is the honest version of that question.

Does the Physical Science: Physics chart show a performance level?

Yes, where NYSED prints the column — and the tool reports it exactly as printed rather than working it out from the scale score. Inside one chart the levels never overlap: a given scale score belongs to exactly one level. What moves is the chart. Across the 1 Physical Science: Physics charts that carry the column, the top of the Level 3 band has sat at 77, the same on every published chart. A level worked out from a generic table would still be wrong here, because that table would have to guess which chart it came from.. The level is read from the row your raw score falls on, or it is not shown.

Which Physical Science: Physics administrations are covered?

1 of them, from June 2026 to June 2026. Sessions earlier than June 2014 exist only as PDFs on the NYSED site and are not covered here. The administrations cancelled around the pandemic — June 2020, August 2020, January 2021, August 2021, January 2022 — are absent because they were never held, and the special June 2021 administration, where it applies, is labelled as such rather than folded in with the ordinary sittings.

Where does this Physical Science: Physics data come from?

From the conversion chart spreadsheets NYSED publishes on nysedregents.org — 1 files for this exam alone, each linked from its own result in the calculator. They are re-downloaded and re-parsed automatically, and nothing is published if a checksum moves, a file changes shape, or the reference values stop matching. Last verified September 2, 2026.
