Students and families can access NYCPS test results for state assessments in grade 3-8, New York State Regents exams, SAT exams, Advanced Placement (AP) exams, and National Assessment of Education Progress (NAEP). These reports provide information to help students and families understand their own performance. They can also be used to inform future decisions about school choice, college planning and career paths.
It’s natural to feel worried about exam results, especially if it feels like your whole future is riding on them. If you find yourself feeling anxious or low about results day, try talking to a friend or family member and distracting yourself with other things you enjoy.
Exam results can be a really stressful time for young people, and they often feel that their whole future rests on one set of marks or scores. This can lead to anxiety and depression, and may even impact sleep or eating patterns. Action Mental Health is here to help young people, their parents or carers and teachers with a range of tips and resources for managing exam results stress.
When you talk to friends or family about your results, try not to tell them what score or grades you got. This will avoid any pressure on them to perform well, and can help you build up a sense of surprise or pride in your achievement. It’s also a good idea to focus on the bigger picture, and remind yourself that there is more to life than exam results!
