> How many homework questions did your entire calc 1 class have? I'm guessing less than 100…

I’m quite surprised at this guess and intrigued by your school’s methodology. I would have estimated >30 problems average across 20 weeks for myself.

My kids are still in pre-algebra, but they get way more drilling still, well over 1000 problems per semester once Zern, IReady, etc. are factored in. I believe it’s too much, but it does seem like the typical approach here in California.
