Does Anyone Want to Discuss the August Geometry Regents Exam?

With everything else going on, I didn't get to give the Geometry Regents exam, the same treatment that I gave the Algebra Regents exam.

I did get to see the exam finally, and I read through it. I don't remember it off the top of my head, but I do remember thinking about it, and wanting to talk about it.

Is it too late for that now? Have you already reviewed these problems the first week of school?

    I'm having a really tough time with question #7 of the multiple choice section. How can I figure this one out?

    You logged in as Anonymous, so I don't know if you'll see that the message was updated, but there's another thread where I went through all of Part 1:

    In particular, in number 7, you have two medians intersecting at a point F, which is the centroid. The longer section is twice as long as the shorter section.
