That's what they do where I live. They usually try to make you do the work in class and give plenty enough time to do it. If you aren't done, then you do it at your home. Usually people that weren't done were those that just messed around. They were the same that complained about the homeworks later on.

What do you mean by review in class? You also have to take in consideration that not every school system is the same even if they might share similarities. I can tell you my highschool did not prepare me to be a compliant employee.

You are right on that point. Having small sheets of homework until an exam to just vomit it on a paper is the worse thing. I'm a good example. I can't really recall most of the things I learned in highschool because this method was employed. It is beneficial on the short term, but not in the long term. Thank you for taking some time to give me your point of view:)

No, of course you don't need it to succeed. What I'm saying is, you're going to succeed better by doing it. You're going to retain information way better if you do some homework after a class than if you just go home and start playing a video game. It's kind of the equivalent of redoing the important parts of the class. I'm not saying homework is fun, I'm saying it's useful if you do it well.

I don't know if I agree with this. I see your point, but I think homework is more meant to make sure you understood the class.

The people who think homework is stupid are usually the people who don't do it. And the people who don't do their homework are usually the ones that don't understand anything at the exam and start crying. Trust me y'all, do you homeworks, that's how I got through highschool without ever needing to open a book to study.

Edit: alright guys, I know you have some strong opinions on this, but instead of downvoting me, try to show me your point of view. Just downvoting me isn't going to make me learn anything other than "shut up".
