Be sure to read 101 Physics Phacts between now and the exam. See also 101 Facts to Know for the Physics Regents
Listed below are links to the resources currently available. You may also use the navigation buttons in the left margin to find what you are looking for.
In August 2003, Mr. Byrne completed his second summer in the Science Research Program for Science Teachers run by Columbia University. In July 2004, he traveled to Singapore and stayed at the Anglo-Chinese School - Independent as part of an exchange organized by the Columbia program. In July and August 2005, Mr. Byrne completed the SMART program at Polytechnic University in Brooklyn. For information on these programs, check out the following:
In August 2007, Mr. Byrne returned to Polytechnic for a two-week intensive program regarding introduction to engineering and use of probes and computers in high school laboratory activities.
You will be able to check here for homework assignments in the new term.
IMPORTANT NOTICE TO STUDENTS:
REGENTS EXAM STUDY AIDS
REVIEW SESSION: Monday, June 23, at 9:00 A.M. in Room 1113.
Bring questions. Do

The answer keys to the recent Regents exams are here.
Do as many of these tests as you can. (They are printed in the back of the Review Book as well as being available online.)
Another good aid is
101 Facts to Know for the Physics Regents. Be sure to read this before the final and before the Regents exam.
