The Geometry Regents was administered on Tuesday, June 23, 2026 as an afternoon exam starting at 1:15 PM. The scoring key and rating guide posted on the NYSED website at approximately 3:00 PM on June 23. The conversion chart converts your raw score out of 80 total points to a scaled score between 0 and 100. A scaled score of 65 or higher is passing.
If you took the Geometry Regents on June 23 or you are a teacher scoring answer papers, here is everything you need.
This guide covers when the scoring materials were posted, where to find them, how to use the conversion chart, and what each score level means for students.
Geometry Regents June 2026 — Exam and Scoring Key Details
The June 2026 Geometry Regents was scheduled as an afternoon examination on Tuesday, June 23, 2026.
Students needed to be admitted by 2:00 PM. The exam itself ran for 3 hours.
| Detail | Information |
|---|---|
| Exam Date | Tuesday, June 23, 2026 |
| Session | Afternoon |
| Student Admission Deadline | 2:00 PM |
| Exam Duration | 3 hours |
| Scoring Key Posted | Approximately 3:00 PM, June 23 |
| Total Raw Points | 80 points |
| Scaled Score Range | 0 to 100 |

Where to Find the June 2026 Geometry Scoring Materials
All scoring materials are posted on two official NYSED pages.
The first is the June 2026 Regents scoring information page:
nysed.gov/state-assessment/june-2026-regents-examination-scoring-information
The second is the dedicated Geometry Regents page where past papers, scoring keys, and conversion charts are archived:
nysedregents.org/geometryre/
The June 2026 scoring key will be added to the archive after the examination period ends.
All files are password-protected PDFs. You must use Adobe Acrobat X or higher to open them. Earlier versions of Adobe Acrobat will not open the files even with the correct password.
How the Conversion Chart Works
The Geometry Regents exam has a maximum raw score of 80 points, spread across four parts.
| Part | Question Type | Number of Questions | Points Each | Total Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Part I | Multiple Choice | 24 | 2 pts | 48 pts |
| Part II | Short Constructed Response | 7 | 2 pts | 14 pts |
| Part III | Medium Constructed Response | 3 | 4 pts | 12 pts |
| Part IV | Extended Constructed Response | 1 | 6 pts | 6 pts |
| Total | 35 questions | 80 pts |
To use the conversion chart, find the student’s total raw score in the column labeled “Raw Score.”
Then read across to find the scaled score. The scaled score is the student’s final examination score.
One critical rule: the chart provided for this specific June 2026 administration must be used. Conversion charts from previous administrations cannot be used — they produce different scaled scores for the same raw score because the curve changes each cycle.
What Raw Score Do You Need to Pass
The exact raw score needed to pass varies slightly each administration depending on the curve.
Based on the January 2026 Geometry Regents conversion chart, a raw score of approximately 35 out of 80 converts to a scaled score of 65 — the minimum passing score.
For Mastery designation — a scaled score of 85 or higher — you needed approximately 67 raw points out of 80 on the January 2026 administration.
The June 2026 curve may be slightly different. The Geometry curve tends to be slightly more generous than Algebra 1 due to the proof-heavy format, but always use the June 2026 chart specifically once it is available.
Performance Levels — What Your Score Means
| Scaled Score | Performance Level | What It Means |
|---|---|---|
| 85–100 | Level 5 — Mastery | Earns Mastery designation on diploma |
| 75–84 | Level 4 — Advanced | Strong performance, exceeds passing |
| 65–74 | Level 3 — Proficient | Passing — meets Regents diploma requirement |
| 55–64 | Level 2 — Basic | Below passing — does not count toward diploma |
| 0–54 | Level 1 — Below Standard | Significant gaps — did not pass |
A scaled score of 65 or higher earns credit toward the Regents diploma. The Geometry Regents is required for both the standard Regents Diploma and the Advanced Regents Diploma.
Scoring Rules for Teachers
The constructed-response parts of the Geometry Regents are scored by committees of mathematics teachers.
No single teacher may score more than approximately one-third of the constructed-response questions on any one student’s exam paper.
Teachers may not score their own students’ answer papers. The exam directions are clear that a minimum of three mathematics teachers must score each student’s paper across Parts II, III, and IV.
The Model Response Set provided by NYSED supplements the scoring key. It gives examples of how less common student responses to constructed-response questions should be scored. Schools should use it alongside the official rubrics in the Scoring Key and Rating Guide during scorer training.
During the examination period, NYSED’s scoring information page should be checked before scoring begins and several times throughout the rating process in case any clarifications are posted.
Partial Credit on Constructed Response
Partial credit is available on Parts II, III, and IV of the Geometry Regents.
For a student to earn partial credit, work must be shown clearly. Correct answers without supporting work typically do not earn full credit — and in some cases, earn no credit at all depending on the question.
Teachers scoring these sections should use check marks to indicate specific student errors without altering or correcting the student’s work in any way.
Mathematically correct variations in answers are allowed unless the rubric specifically states otherwise. Units do not need to be included when the wording of the question permits their omission.
What Calculators Are Allowed
Graphing calculators are permitted and recommended for the Geometry Regents.
Approved models include the TI-84, TI-Nspire without CAS capability, and the Casio fx-9750GII. Calculators with computer algebra system functionality are not permitted.
Students also receive a reference sheet containing common geometric formulas — including area, volume, coordinate geometry formulas, and trigonometry values — inside the exam booklet.
Next Opportunity — August 2026 Regents
Students who did not pass the June 2026 Geometry Regents can retake the exam in August.
The August 2026 Regents administration runs on August 18 and 19, 2026. Morning exams start at 8:30 AM and afternoon exams start at 12:30 PM.
Students can retake any Regents exam unlimited times. Only the highest score counts toward diploma requirements.
Frequently Asked Questions
When was the Geometry Regents scoring key posted in June 2026?
The scoring key was posted at approximately 3:00 PM on June 23, 2026, shortly after the afternoon exam ended. Materials are posted on the NYSED scoring information page at nysed.gov.
What is the passing score for the Geometry Regents in 2026?
A scaled score of 65 out of 100 is the minimum passing score. Based on recent administrations, this corresponds to approximately 35 raw points out of 80 total. The exact number may vary slightly depending on the June 2026 curve.
Where can I find the June 2026 Geometry Regents conversion chart?
The conversion chart is posted on nysedregents.org/geometryre/ and on the June 2026 Regents scoring information page at nysed.gov. All files are password-protected PDFs requiring Adobe Acrobat X or higher.
Can I use a conversion chart from a previous year?
No. Each administration has its own unique conversion chart. Using a chart from a different year will produce an incorrect scaled score. Always use only the chart provided for the specific June 2026 administration.
How many raw points are on the Geometry Regents?
The total raw score is 80 points — 48 from Part I multiple choice, 14 from Part II short response, 12 from Part III medium response, and 6 from Part IV extended response.
What score do I need for the Mastery designation on Geometry Regents?
A scaled score of 85 or higher earns the Mastery designation. Based on the January 2026 chart, this required approximately 67 raw points out of 80. The June 2026 requirement may be slightly different depending on the curve.
When is the next Geometry Regents if I need to retake?
The next opportunity is the August 2026 administration on August 18 and 19. Contact your school for registration details. Only the highest score counts, so retaking does not risk lowering a previous passing score.
Bottom Line
The Geometry Regents scoring key for June 2026 posted at 3:00 PM on June 23, 2026 on the NYSED website.
The conversion chart converts your raw score out of 80 to a scaled score between 0 and 100. A scaled score of 65 passes. Always use the June 2026 chart specifically — previous charts cannot be used.
If you did not pass, the August 18–19 window is your next opportunity.
