When I was in highschool I, along with everyone else, took math classes. When we were given a test we would be given full marks for getting the answer correct. If our answer was incorrect we could still get part marks for showing our work. I never showed my work. I could look at problems and know the answer, usually much quicker than other students who wrote everything out. Just because I didn't write out long solutions, didn't mean I didn't understand the problem. I got to the correct answer. That alone showed I understood the problem and the solution. Because someone else's written response took multiple lines, and he/she took longer, it didn't make his/her response better than mine. If anything, I got to the proper response quicker, meaning my response was better, as I was able to focus on other things in the same amount of time. I don't understand how you can discount someone's response because you don't like the way they got there.
