We never used the worksheets. At the end of each math section there is a quiz. I started him out in 3rd grade and let him test out of any section he thought he knew. The deal we had was that he had to get 90% or 9/10 to pass. He leapfrog through much of the early material this way but there were some parts that he legitimately had to learn. No matter what method you use for teaching there will always be holes or gaps. T4L exposed a few of his. He worked on it about 1.5 hrs a day while we were homeschooling, covering all the core subjects. Surprisingly the Social Studies section is very extensive and as that was something we had pretty much ignored up until then he spent alot of time in that area.
