I had to go to school an entire extra semester to retake classes that I "Failed" due to attendance even though I had an "A" and often even the highest, grade in the entire class.



If I had a dime for every time I've contemplated letting my grade drop from missing class due to an attedance policy (99% of the outcomes would be going from a high A to a C or D), but realistically, choosing that path never made sense since 1. I don't want a low grade 2. Failing the course would only mean having go through the same process again.




I wish in my school that it would have just 'dropped' instead of being a flat-out fail. If the teachers at my school had a policy, there was no lowering of the grade. It was a flat-out "F" after as few as 3 absences.
