I never cut class in high school (all right, a few times), but I cut class all the damn time in college. Though in my English class this semester, I cut so much in the first weeks that if I miss one more class, I'll be dropped. So I guess I have to go to that one now.
And you may ask yourself, 'Where does that highway go to?'

I cut study periods a lot, mostly to be with my GF in her class, the teacher there doesn't mind.
I also skip sport whenever I can.

No real stories though.

High school - a few times.

College - far too many. In fact, enough to be considered a withdraw from my Chem class last semester.

I cut lectures a bit, mainly ones that are going to be shit boring or that I have covered before in other classes.

Even though I've never skipped a class, if ""Einhander Sn0m4n"" walked up to me just before class and asked me to skip... I know I would in a heartbeat! :oops:

I've cut my 9:30 class four times because my alarm doesn't always go off. I've skipped French about once every two weeks because we're usually ahead and the class is boring. I don't skip Tae Kwon Do because it's fun, and most of my other classes actually have attendance policies.

Funny thing, though: I cut the class so much, my teacher hasn't seen my hair, which has grown in since the last time I was here. :-)
I skipped half of a one part of a standardized test because it doesn't count for graduation or anything with a female junior friend ( :D ) of mine.

Now I have detention Thursday.

I cut (college) classes fairly often, mostly physics. Partly because the text book is good and I can learn what I would in class, but mostly to do my calculus homework that's due the next hour. I always go to my recitation, though.

I skipped band once. *ducks flames* Hear me out. The teacher was holding auditions, and I wasn't scheduled to go until a few days later. Other than that, nothing much, especially since we have an open campus policy (although that may change next semester :evil: ).
