How Often do You do Your HomeworK?

Just curious ;)

It will also be interesting to see the difference between college students and high school students.

In my last 2 years, I handed in 100% of my homework.  And it was either on time or not handed in, no such thing as late.

I tend to do ~90% of it; the other 10% being an absolute waste of my time.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

I don't have time to do all my homework. I have a really busy schedule. It's more a problem on the weekdays -- I get home at 7-7:30 every day.

I try to do all my homework though. I understand that it helps and I also understand that it is a price for compulsory education. Yet I also think that homework presents too rigid a learning approach. It forces you to read out of a certain textbook, do a certain set of excercises, and it often does not give you any "problems" -- only excercises.

Unfortunately, at the high school level, not everyone appreciates learning and is motivated to learn. Without homework, too many people wouldn't learn because they wouldn't be motivated to do so. I expect it improves in college, but I think that AP/BC/IB classes should have optional homework. (This means you can pick and choose which excercises and problems to do, based on what best befits your learning style.)

In the last two years, I did about 98% of my homework. This year's been hectic and different though, with personal issues, but it's all good now.

I end of handing in 100% of my homework, but I end of doing a big portion of my homework before school, at lunch, or I end up copying someone.

It depends on the class. I don't do homework for AP Environmental Science, French II, or AP World History. But I definitely do it all for Chemistry, AP Lang, Geo, and APCS.

I do it.  My homework is insanely lame, though.  If I didn't do it for my AP US history class, I'd be failing most definitely.  Physics and biology I'd have an A in, so whatev.  Gym doesn't count.

I always do it, no matter how mindless the exercises are.  I'm not "involved" in many activities aside from work and school, so I have the time for it.

I do all homework that I have to turn in.  However, if the homework isn't mandatory and just for my benefit, I won't do it if I don't feel like it.
errr... something like that...

I think you should have definitely separated "late" and "not at all" in this poll.

Almost never except for projects and things worth more than one grade.  Or, as stated by some guy above, things that are mandatory.

I have been good about doing it this year but it still gets done at the very last minute (like morning it's due) oftentimes.
