How often do you skip class?

How often do you skip class, or do you not skip class at all? I'm taking fairly difficult classes so I don't get to skip as much as my classmates, but I still end up doing it 2-3 times per week.

Once a month.

I can't miss more than 9 days per semester at my school or else I fail due to absence.

Let's just say, I am not in class more than I am in class. College rules.

I only skip a class when there is a big test and I don't feel prepared to take it on that day.

Those who skipped class too much are having to stay extra days to make it up. Sucks when they are seniors!
I missed 18 days this semester alone (well, almost all 3rd quarter) but they all have a doctor note (2 long absences) so I'm off the hook. Needless to say I don't really get a chance to skip so freely! I usually end up going over my days every semester anyway. I hate it.

I've never skipped a class in my entire academic career. All the schools I've gone to crack down hard on skipping, plus I hate make up work =]
