I was homeschooled, so there wasn't really any opportunity to skip *grins*

But in college...well...I don't often skip classes. If I miss, it's because there's a good reason for it. I'm supposed to be in classes right now, for example, but I'm sick. I feel like dog poop AND I'm contagious, so it's just best to stay at home. I can still keep up with the classwork, so it's not the end of the world.

I learn more, though, when I'm actually in class. When the profs are discussing the literature that we all read at home, I get a better idea of what's going on. And if I'm actually present in my math class, I can ask questions and actually see the prof work out the problem on the board or projector or whatever. There's something to be said for showing up, even when the prof IS really boring :P

I don't skip class usually, because I'm in a lot of really difficult classes and our school has a really strict skipping class policy. Your parents get called if you aren't present at even one class... However, I know the attendance lady pretty well and I can usually get off about twice a year, plus I can invent being sick and skip maybe a few more times a year... which is kinda funny, because I always come to school even when I'm super-incredibly sick, but, like I said, I skip occasionally, just to go out with friends and stuff... you know, when you just need a break.

I went to a private school, and they were really strict about students attending classes. I could skip P.E. by claiming menstrual pains, but that's about it. They would call your parents if you didn't show up to make sure you had an excuse, and they took roll at every class, so I didn't really get a chance to skip school. If I did fake being sick, which happened at least once each semester, I usually had to spend it at home typing up an essay or report that I had fallen behind on.

The only reason that I would miss class is because I was sick or had to do something else more important. I have actually never ditched class of faked sick :D . I think I should get a trophy. Anyways, I usually don't like to miss school because I get so far behind. I do pretty bad on anything that was covered that day, which always seems like a lot.

Well... I don't do that usually, but when is needed (like most said: because i'm sick or something) I do.

But anyway I like that. After all (I got to say THANKS GOD!!) I'm pretty good in almost everything that requieres brain (like Math), so I usually don't got problems the next day...

My first time skipping class was my English class when I'm in my sophomore year.
I remembered it because that was my last class attendance.

I regret it, because from that time sometimes I skip my class and my inner self
didn't give me anymore alert( what do we say... feel guilty?)

So, if you haven't skipped any class, dont' do it kay?

I skipped class first time a few years ago. I went to a private school and they had me and a few other guys help out a teacher moving some stuff. Instead of going back for next class, we just stayed in the bathroom the entire time talking.
