I go to Ohio State and I am a business major. If you skip one class, you are guaranteed to fail. So no, I do not skip class and you can take that to the bank.

I wasnt an ONLY test taker, but I skipped as often as I could that is for sure. I just made sure I went to enough that my grade wasnt in jeopardy of falling the the "unacceptable" range.

depended on what the prof was like. I skipped out on a religion class a lot, it was a cold rainy fall that year, it was a 3 day per week class at 10am, and everything was on a take home basis. As I look back on it now, I feel bad about never going to that class, the prof was a real good, understanding guy, and the class seemed like it was very informative.
Most classes I usually missed the max allowed, or used my own discretion.

Many entry level jobs and management programs require a 3.0 or higher GPA, at least in the business world.Tim Tebow wrote: C's get degrees... and after graduation people don't care about your GPA... so, why try too hard? lol

This quarter was my first quarter... Skipped 3-4 classes total. 2 were in Public speaking, when i really didn't feel like sitting around for 2 hours listening to other peoples speeches. The other was a freshman sociology class, which I could have passed w/o ever going to class..

Huh? Entry level jobs are what you get right out of college. I had one years ago when I graduated while I worked on getting my business running on the side.Sage wrote:If you're striving for an entry level job, then that sucks for you.LJ wrote:Many entry level jobs and management programs require a 3.0 or higher GPA, at least in the business world.Tim Tebow wrote: C's get degrees... and after graduation people don't care about your GPA... so, why try too hard? lol

Not going into business, and have a plan set up already in which I have it all worked out.

I missed every class I could (in non major courses).
I had a CSCI class that attendance was only mandatory on test days, I literally attended the 1st day, 2 tests and a final.
It should be noted that while I did skip, I'm actually half smart and graduated with a 3.42 GPA and a 3.85 in my major.

I plan on skipping the whole "entry level" thing and going to straight "BOSS CA$H" status.

Some classes I would never miss (Thermodynamics, Dynamic Meteorology, Partial Differentials, anything in grad school)
Others I turned from 4 days a week classes into 2 days a week because there was just no point in going (entry level stats to complete my math minor, Social Work 101 to meet some liberal arts requirements, Poly Sci 101, etc.)
