it depends.

in highschool I was still going to classes, same in prep school where I was really busy.

Then I got into engineering school and I think over 3 years I attended around 20% of the classes at most...

You've just corroborated why all the engineering types from your side of the world that I've worked with are sub-par, and for the most part, even dumber than that :D

And which side of the world would that be? ;)

Because I am not american....

Besides engineering school doesn't really describe it well

Basically for 3 years we had classes on Quantum Physic, solid and fluid mechanic, chemistry, very advanced mathematics, economy, English, computer science, law and a few other things....

The hard part is the prep school, once you get in, it's a done deal you will have a diploma and a very well paid job...( the alumni of my school are the Who's who of the french presidents, ministers, CEO of the top 500 french companies and nobel prize winners...)

Oh and did I mention I was getting paid about 1 grand a month despite not attending classes, had my own room and internet access ( all that back in 1993 when Internet was just a word for most people and the web didn't exist yet...)
