> Most homework is worthless. Math says otherwise, my mastery of math in college came through hours of slogging through problem sets (which the answers are often provided for!) until I understood all the many ways to apply a concept. Prior to college I had skated by w/o doing homework (I understood what was said in class, so why bother?) and it bit me really hard. Understanding what it said during a lecture is one thing, internalizing that knowledge, and knowing how to apply it, means actually putting in the time and effort.
