Method checked by NUM8ERS · 26 October 2026. Six published NYSED charts are included. Scores come directly from the matching chart; no curve is estimated.
1. Choose the correct exam and scoring method
Earth and Space Sciences is the new examination, first administered in June 2025. Physical Setting/Earth Science is the legacy examination; its last administration was June 2026. Older papers remain useful for practice when scored with their own charts. NYSED transition schedule · NYSED administration directions.
| Exam | Inputs used here | Lookup method |
|---|---|---|
| Earth and Space Sciences · new | Total written-test raw credits: 0–50 in all three supported 2026 charts | One raw-score row gives the scale score and published performance level. |
| Physical Setting/Earth Science · legacy | Written credits 0–85 AND performance credits 0–16 | The written row and performance column intersect at the scale score. Not for the Braille edition. |
Do not combine legacy credits into one conversion input. Two students with the same combined number can receive different scale scores because the two coordinates matter. The new exam has no separate legacy 16-credit performance input.
Legacy written sections
| Part | Question numbers | Maximum credits |
|---|---|---|
| A | 1–35 | 35 |
| B-1 | 36–50 | 15 |
| B-2 | 51–65 | 15 |
| C | 66–85 | 20 |
| Written total | All written parts | 85 |
The legacy performance test adds a separate score with a maximum of 16 credits. NYSED’s directions require the performance component for the same administration; a performance score from an earlier administration cannot be carried over. Confirm your score with your teacher. Legacy performance-test rules.
2. Worked examples and how to check your result
Mark practice responses using the matching key and rating guide before entering earned credits. Follow each question’s requirements for evidence, calculation, units, diagrams and explanations. New exam papers, keys and rating guides · Legacy exam papers, keys and rating guides.
January 2026 legacy example
65 written credits and 9 performance credits convert to 85. Find written row 65, then performance column 9 in the linked PDF. The calculator’s example button uses these same inputs. Verify the January 2026 chart intersection.
For comparison, 70 written credits and 4 performance credits convert to 84 on that chart, even though both pairs have the same combined total. Enter the two scores separately.
New exam examples
In January 2026, total raw 24 converts to 65. In June and August 2026, total raw 21 converts to 65 and 65 respectively. The minimum raw credits to reach 85 are 39 in January, 37 in June and 36 in August. Each applies only to that administration.
Target planning
For the legacy exam, the target calculation keeps your entered performance score fixed. Some targets cannot be reached by increasing written credits alone: with performance score zero, the January 2026 chart tops out at 85. A target of 90 is therefore shown as unreachable under that condition.
Exact lookup does not remove uncertainty in self-marking. Only the school can issue your official score. Unlisted administrations and legacy Braille editions are not silently assigned a different chart.

Expand your matching chart. These six tables contain all 4,539 scale-score entries, including every written/performance intersection in the three legacy matrices. Source links are provided for independent verification.

4. Passing benchmarks, levels and mastery
| Administration | Scale 65 or above | Scale 85 or above |
|---|---|---|
| August 2026 · Earth and Space Sciences (new) | 21 | 36 |
| June 2026 · Earth and Space Sciences (new) | 21 | 37 |
| January 2026 · Earth and Space Sciences (new) | 24 | 39 |
65 is the common Regents passing benchmark. Legacy thresholds depend on both written and performance credits; use the calculator with your performance score to find the required written credits.
New-exam performance levels are reproduced directly from the selected chart. The legacy conversion PDFs do not supply performance levels, so this tool does not invent them or apply the new exam’s level boundaries to an older paper.
A score of 85 is an exam-score benchmark, not an automatic diploma endorsement. NYSED’s Mastery in Science endorsement also requires a Regents diploma with advanced designation and normally scores of 85 or better on three science Regents examinations. NYSED describes alternatives involving granted exemptions. Your school must check the applicable combination against your full record. Official endorsement requirements.
The tool does not determine local-diploma, safety-net, appeal, exemption or other graduation eligibility. Consult your school counselor about your circumstances. NYSED graduation FAQ.
5. Reference-table editions, equipment and lab requirements
| Exam or administration | Reference-table edition | Calculator |
|---|---|---|
| Supported 2026 Earth and Space Sciences papers | 2024 Earth and Space Sciences tables | Four-function or scientific; graphing prohibited. |
| January 2027 Earth and Space Sciences and later guidance | 2026 Revised Edition first applies in January 2027. No January 2027 score curve is supplied here. | Check that administration’s official directions. |
| Legacy Physical Setting/Earth Science | 2011 Physical Setting/Earth Science tables | Four-function or scientific; graphing prohibited. |
NYSED explicitly retains the 2024 tables for August 2026. The 2026 Revised Edition begins with the January 2027 exam. The calendar year in a filename is not enough to choose the correct booklet. Official 2024 reference tables · Revised-edition implementation notice · Legacy reference-table index.
Use clean reference tables and follow the equipment rules for your administration. NYSED calculator and exam-material requirements.
Exam admission requires the required laboratory experience and satisfactory documented reports. NYSED’s science guidance specifies 1,200 minutes of laboratory experience in addition to classroom instruction and allows hands-on and simulated experiences. For the new course, successful completion of the required investigations is also part of admission. The investigations are not an extra 16-point score to add to the new written exam.

6. Focused Earth Science revision notes
These reminders help diagnose missed practice questions. They are not a complete syllabus or an estimate of future topic weights.
Read evidence before answering
Identify the variables, units, legend, scale and time span in every stimulus. State what the data show before offering an explanation. Use the actual values when the question asks for quantitative evidence.
Density and Earth materials
Use measured mass and volume consistently. Compare observed properties with the correct identification table rather than relying only on a specimen’s color.
Topographic gradients
Read the contour interval and map scale carefully. Gradient compares a change in elevation with horizontal distance; it is not the contour interval alone.
For an elevation increase from 200 metres to 600 metres over a horizontal distance of 2 kilometres:
Weather and climate
Distinguish a short-term weather observation from a long-term climate pattern. Follow pressure, temperature, moisture and wind evidence across the supplied map or data series. Avoid attributing a trend to one variable without the evidence requested.
Plate tectonics and geologic history
Relate boundary motion to the evidence for earthquakes, volcanism and crust formation. For relative ages, apply the stated geological relationships and account for unconformities or later disturbances. For numeric ages, check the appropriate time scale or decay information.
Earth, Moon and space systems
Explain seasons using axial tilt and changing solar angle and daylight duration. Distinguish rotation from revolution and lunar phases from eclipses. Read the geometry and direction of motion in the supplied model before choosing an explanation.
Prepare for your actual course
Use the correct released papers and reference edition. The new exam uses question clusters tied to evidence, models and explanations. Legacy practical preparation should follow your teacher’s permitted instruction; secure performance-test materials are not public practice content.
NYSED Earth and Space Sciences educator guide provides the new exam’s assessment framework.
7. A practical score-improvement routine
- Choose a released paper that matches your course and exam title.
- Mark it with its own key and rating guide. Identify the evidence or reasoning needed for each missed credit.
- Enter earned credits using that administration’s chart. Keep legacy performance and written scores separate.
- Set a target and check the required credits. For legacy papers, remember that the performance score is held fixed.
- Practise one missed skill, then answer and mark a fresh question. Repeat with a full paper to check your timing and consistency.
Do not treat one practice result as a guaranteed future score.

Match the full title and administration on the paper. Earth and Space Sciences is the new exam. Physical Setting/Earth Science is the legacy exam, last administered in June 2026.
Does the new exam include a separate 16-point practical score?
No legacy performance-test input is used for the new exam. Enter the total raw credits from its written paper. Required course investigations are part of exam admission and learning, not bonus credits added to this conversion.
What are the legacy written and performance limits?
The legacy written maximum is 85 credits and the separate performance maximum is 16. Enter both whole-number scores for the same administration. Blank performance input is not assumed to mean zero.
Can I just add the two legacy scores?
No. The chart uses a written row and a performance column. For example, January 2026 written 65 and performance 9 give 85, while written 70 and performance 4 give 84 despite the same combined total.
Can I carry over an earlier practical score?
NYSED’s legacy directions state that a performance score from a prior administration cannot be carried over. Use the score for the same administration and ask your teacher if you are unsure.
How does target planning work for the legacy exam?
It holds the entered performance score fixed, then searches the selected chart for the minimum written credits that reach your target. If no written score can reach it at that performance score, the result says so.
Why is no official level shown for a legacy result?
The supported legacy conversion PDFs provide scale scores without performance levels. The tool does not invent a level or apply the newer exam’s boundaries to a legacy result.
Does an 85 give me Mastery in Science?
An 85 is an exam-score benchmark. The diploma endorsement also depends on advanced-designation requirements and the applicable combination of science exam scores or granted exemptions. Your school determines eligibility.
Which reference tables should I use?
Use 2024 Earth and Space Sciences tables for the supported 2026 new-exam papers, and the 2011 Physical Setting/Earth Science tables for legacy papers. The 2026 Revised Edition first applies to the January 2027 new exam.
Are graphing calculators allowed?
The June 2026 directions prohibit graphing calculators for both Earth and Space Sciences and legacy Physical Setting/Earth Science. Use the specified four-function or scientific calculator and check your own administration’s directions.
Can this score a Braille legacy paper or an unlisted exam?
No. The included legacy charts explicitly exclude the Braille edition. Select the unsupported option and use the matching official edition and administration chart; no substitute curve is applied.
Can I enter decimals or negative credits?
No. Enter whole-number earned credits within the displayed limits. Zero is valid. Invalid values produce an error instead of being silently rounded or clamped.
Can I download the result?
Yes. A successful conversion enables a CSV with the exact chart, source, scores, target and limitations. Changing an input hides the old result and requires a new conversion before download.
Who maintains the calculator?
NUM8ERS checked six published NYSED charts and the scoring method on 26 October 2026. This independent tool is not affiliated with NYSED and does not replace official school scoring.
