The issue I had in school was I didn't see the point of it. Why should I solve this problem? Due to that I didn't mind only knowing the answer and ignoring the methodology.

I hated classes that didn't have correct answers, for that reason. But in math, there was a 100% correct answer I could use to impress the teacher and the other students. Fueling my ego was enough of a reason for me... Nowadays, I wonder why I needed to do that.
