Doing extra is never wasted effort. It might not be necessary for the specific report you are doing, but what you learn creates a much better foundation for your future learning, both within the course and in life in general. The things you will be doing in the future will all build on the knowledge you are gaining now, so the less thorough you are now the more you will struggle in the future.
I agree. Learn the basics very very well now and everything else will be so much easier.
Thanks! That's a helpful way to reframe it
I've actually been pondering future education recently, and came to the conclusion I'd probably like to go for a bachelor's in a similar field one day. Being able to do better research and essay style writing than what's required (which honestly just seems like an extension of year 8 english to me) would definitely make it easier!
