They\u2019re testing Knicks fans\u2019 patience. <\/p>\n

Thousands of Big Apple teens will miss out on the Knicks historic ticker-tape parade down the Canyon of Heroes \u2014 because they\u2019ll be stuck in class taking Regents exams.<\/p>\n

The scheduling snafu means students in the New York metro area will be stretching their brains while the rest of the city is losing their minds at the citywide victory celebration for the NBA champs on Thursday. <\/p>\n

\u201cHonestly, it sucks,\u201d said Jael Rosado, a freshman at LaGuardia High School in Manhattan. \u201cI would\u2019ve loved to go. If there were a way to take it either later or earlier, possibly, I would have loved it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Classmate Savannah Feurvil was also ticked about the scheduling snafu.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is kind of sucky that it had to be on a day when students are going to be still in school, working their asses off to try to get by and stuff,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s definitely a bummer that that those two things coincidentally had to happen on the same day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Long before the Knicks brought home the first NBA title in 53 years, state education officials scheduled Regents science exams for Thursday, when the rest of the New York metro area will be celebrating the hometown heroes in what could prove to be the biggest parade ever held in the city.<\/p>\n
