No, it's pretty much the last final class where no one does anything, and I'm not sure how the system on USA works, but it's not as easy to miss the class, it could actually cost me (even if it's just a useless day to just fool around)


How would it cost you? Here in Canada attendance is only a small percentage of your grade. Exam's make up a huge hunk and assignments make up a huge hunk and so fourth. But attendance while being part of your grade really doesn't make up much of the grade as it shouldn't.

So if you have no big assignments due and their is no essay then skipping the class does very little. Of course the school might phone your home to ask why you didn't attend. But in the end missing one class wouldn't kill your grades at least not in Canada.

What are the consequences to missing one class where you live?

Well, for starters if I leave mid-class it's a "grave fault", they call my parents (who kill me, I'm 15 ) and there's that ugly R in my report card.

Not going to class is TOTALLY not an option.
