Regents Sequential Mathematics Course I and Math A Examinations (Students with Disabilities)

Each year between 1997 and 2001, there were increasing numbers of students with disabilities participating in mathematics Regents examinations. In 2001, the number participating rose to 18,468, but declined to 13,016 in 2002. This decline may have been attributable to changes in curriculum to accommodate the longer period of time it takes to prepare for the Math A test. In 2003, the number of students with disabilities participating in Math A examination increased to 16,826. Of the students tested in 2003, 45.8 percent achieved a score between 55-100. More students achieved a score between 55-100 in 2003 than took the examination in 1997.
