<p>After going to college for a while I have realized that it is not always necessary to go to class. In fact, it can be good to skip classes that are easy to focus on the harder ones.</p>
<p>Does anyone else do the same thing?</p>
<p>does anyone not do it?</p>
<p>I have not skipped a class once this year. I did have an unexcused absence (I think) for going on thanksgiving vacation a day early.</p>
<p>I’ve never skipped a class. School maybe 2-3 times a year.</p>
<p>Edit: Are you talking about college students? Blah I’m taking about HS.</p>
<p>I skipped English and history several times this year. Interestingly enough, I made an A in both of these all four quarters, and they’re IB classes. Case-in-point: some classes you simply don’t have to attend all that often to do well in.</p>
<p>I missed a lot of class on account of extracurriculars, illness, etc this year, and still managed to maintain a 4 point. Though, that may not qualify as skipping.</p>
<p>2-3 times per week, unfortunately.</p>
<p>I don’t skip too often, maybe once or twice per class each semester at absolute most. And I always let the professor know in advance, which saves me when it comes to final grading if they hold absences against you.</p>
<p>Depends on the class…I skipped about 8 history classes last semester since I knew it would be an easy A no matter what :p</p>
<p>I skip Chem a lot because it’s terribly easy, but I usually get an excused absence for it (because I don’t want to actually skip…that’s cutting aka a write-up + ISS!)</p>
