Should homework be a compulsory thing in schools? Personally, I don't think it should be that important. Sure it helps you out on certain subjects your teacher taught you. But then what is revision? You can literally revise whenever you want if you're dedicated to achieving great results. Homework to me sounds like your teacher is forcing you study, having no trust in students that will do it themselves. I understand that in elementary schools its pretty much needed but high schools and even college, that's up to you, not the teacher.

As much as I'd like to laze around, I think that without homework, I'd have little proficiency in school, given that I do study but not too much.

Well Stated Ms.Flower!
