Signed in just to say. Everyone's insane for wasting their time on homework. I had these thoughts as a 6 year old and refused to ever do homework. Passed school by only classwork and tests. It's all joke, conditioning people for a future work culture that at its core about puritan work ethic BS. Byyyye.

My trig teacher in high school wouldn’t pass anyone who hadn’t done ALL the homework. It was insane. I had aced every test, had an overall grade of a B or C and could no longer get any points for turning in any assignments but he still required them to be done or he wouldn’t pass me. I even overheard him talking with one of my other math teachers and he admitted that I (and another student) obviously knew my stuff but he couldn’t justify passing us. My other math teacher said some nice things about me and gently suggested that that was bananas, but he didn’t change his mind.

I did the entire corpus of coursework over the course of a single weekend and turned them all in on one of the last days of class.

+1 I never did mine either. French aside it was an absolute waste of time. Playing around with silly computers did me vastly more good. I did have to do some work outside of class at A-level, but much of that is because they’d kick you out if you didn’t.
