This remind me of something I learned in high school while doing my math homework. An assignment becomes much easier when you first look at the answer in the back. When you know what to aim for, it's easier to weave the right path from the data to results. You aren't learning much in the process, but technically, you've done the job.

Even better, when you're doing particularly 'wordy' calculations with many many greek letters where one line goes over two actual lines one the paper, you can start from both ends and just drop a little here and add a little there until you have woven them together (if you cannot get it done properly). Chances are good that whoever corrects it won't notice..
