I was never the one to habitually skip class so mine would be maybe 1 or 2 times a class. I'm sure someone will say they went to the 1st time, skipped the rest and then went to the final and passed.

Personally challenged myself to skip every single class between two tests since we had one dropped test in the class. Skipped 33% of them (every class between tests 2 and 3). Made an A in the class.



And a low B on that test.

2 months. Got suspended for a year, so technically I didn't fail.

In one class, I went to the 1st time, skipped the rest and then went to the final and passed.

In my college algebra class freshman year I learned the teacher did a review the day before the test that was pretty similar to the test. I stopped going to class except on review day and test day. Made an A.

I was pretty damn good at algebra though.

Took anatomy. Decided to switch majors late in the semester so I quit going because it was my only Tuesday Thursday class.

Made a B while never attending class between 3rd test and 6th test

There was a statistics class where I only showed up to take the midterm and final. Not something I recommend, and I'm not particularly proud of it, but I did pass.

Almost every Gen Ed class i only went on test days. Id show up the first day, pull up NoteSwap, and if the teacher was talking word for word from the notes, id never come back except to take tests.

Physics 2102. The professor was horrible and I showed up a grand total of 3 times- the first day, the midterm, and the final. The final was so hard that I was making up stuff just to try to get partial credit. Still not quite sure how I passed, but I got the C I needed.

I went in the first day and asked for a bathroom pass. I came back for the final and said "my zipper got stuck" and crushed the final!

I had dreams for years about this. I'd skip everything but first day, exams and practice sessions.

I once had a class with a professor where I showed up to the practice session, only to find it was the exam. Told prof my issue, apologized profusely, and he agreed to let me count the final double (assuming I would get a terrible grade, which I ended up not thanks to a huge curve).

Anyhow took another class with him the following year, and did the EXACT SAME THING. I was such a piece of shite, thankfully he really didn't care and gave me a break yet again.

Psych class. The teacher said we didn't have to come to class or do the homework if we got an a on the final, we'd get an a in the class

I never went back

I hope you're joking this is easily done. All three of my econs I did this as well as several general education classes. If a teacher doesn't take attendance then it's pretty easy to teach yourself the material in many classes.

Physics 2102, I mightve went to class a total of 5 times all semester. I barely made a C.
