How good should be in Math if I want to become a Quant

Hi,

Do I have to be good in Math and know by heart Binomial option pricing models or Black-Scholes models formulas by heart, if I want to be a quant??

I probably already know the answer and it is - YES, because that is what I am going to program, so I do not have a choice, I have to know what I am programming.

But I would like to discuss how deep in math should one go to be a good quant developer.
