Chart: Students with Disabilities Participation and Performance on the Regents Examination in Sequential Mathematics Course I and Math A** (Public Schools Only)

* Data are from the OLAP file.
**  Results beginning in 1999 reflect students taking either of the two math examinations.

Since 1997, when 5,776 students with disabilities were tested on the Sequential Math Course I examination, there has been a 125 percent increase in the number of students tested. Beginning in 1999, the Math A examination was phased in. While Course I is a two-semester course, Math A is three semesters. Most students with disabilities who took a Math examination took Math A in 2002. Of the 8,950 students who took the Math A examination, 38.3 percent passed the examination with a score of 55-100. Additionally, 4,066 students with disabilities took the Sequential Course I examination and 35.4 percent passed with a score of 55-100.
