I never skipped a day in high school. I think that the only days I missed were for when the basketball team went to the state tournament (it was allowed to skip the day to see the game) and for my sister's college graduation.

Now if you're asking how many college classes I skipped...too many for the first 2.5 years ;)

I was the same way. I only missed a day in high school cause i was sick as hell.

College I skipped all the time in my four+ years.

I have you beat by a few miles.

I was on a student teacher-type co-op and got paid $13/hr to play CS on a LAN with the class I was teaching, with the class's teacher sitting there watching.

I never "skipped," I either was sick or I was "sick" and got a call-in.

Not a whole lot. And if it was to "skip" it was that I told my mom that I wasn't going to go to school since I didn't feel like it.

I usually skip a class a day or so (out of 4). I work on the weekends and three nights a week, so about every other monday I take off... one needs a day off once in a while, ya know?

I never used to skip whole days usually (they would call home), but I would generally find ways of leaving early.

Besides that, I got lots of sleep in classes.
