I actually had an 8th grade teacher do a special conference with my parents after I complained strongly enough about the nonsense of homework, and she was gracious enough to give me an exception that I could be graded on tests alone. Other kids liked that homework points boosted their grades from mediocre test scores. But I aced all the tests and thus didn't have to do any homework. That was a strange one-time case though.
