Math and physics (or any subject that requires calculation) usually requires practice. Applying the knowledge in a short timeframe is different skillset then just having the knowledge.

That being said, for some people in STEM the homework is >90% of the practice that you need to pass the exams.

That is, unless it's a topic that's mainly memorization like medicine or organic chemistry

You usually don’t have to memorize too much stuff for mathy subjects. At least when I went to uni we were always allowed cheat sheets.

If you’re the type that can lessen the concepts easily, practice and study might not be as important.
