AP is different, but lets not act like the majority of grading in schools isn't based upon homework and the vast majority of homework is essentially copying out of a book. Ill never forget the look of one young girls face when told homework would no longer be graded. She says while crying, "How am I going to get an A now"

NYC's point is still accurate- in high school you can ace tests and still be a C/D student is you are lazy. In college the opposite is true.
I figured out early in on high school that if I did my homework I literally didn't have to study for tests- maintian a B test averaage and do your homework = A. I was a "I'd rather have 90 than a 99 since both are an A fella
