Hi @Simmo
I would suggest going through the Part 1 a little closely, Jeremy does suggest A LOT of homework! However, there are these little hints of them everywhere and not a definitive requirement since fastai isn’t just aimed at making us do homework. You could just watch the lectures or go through the notebooks or really use the knowledge to win a kaggle comp or even apply it to your domain. (I’m not an expert and I’ve failed multiple times at all of these. I make these claims of what you could do based on a little interview series that I have been doing to share stories of our peers to motivate beginners)
