Unsatisfactory attendance for ACCT1511 (2 Viewers)

[mysterymarkplz]

Hey guys, so I've only been to 10/13 of the weekly seminars which puts me below 80%, and apparently I will fail the course because of it. I've heard mixed rumors going around with people saying that I won't fail and others telling me that I will. Does anyone have experience with this? Should I just call up the head lecturer be honest and ask for forgiveness or something? Don't really know what to do.

thanks.

Present your med certificate if you get notice from the lecturer saying you didnt have meet the attendance criteria.

Or you could say something like how you were actually present and there must have been a mistake in the attendance record by the tutor. (Unless it required a signature)

Yeah I got the notice today but I dont have a medical certificate on me, and i dont wanna forge one cause i'll be in deeper shit. And on the doctors certificate it would say I went to the doctors on the 23rd but i was away on the 15th, wouldn't the lecturer deny me since im a week late?

if you dont provide legitimate reasons for your absence and your attendance falls below 80%, then you will fail

Just goes to show how much of a nuisance and terrible idea attendance criteria actually is. There's people I know with high WAM's only attend 20% of their contact hours of all sem.

Meanwhile my lect takes photos of us each week to ensure we are in class so we cant forge attendence

Just say you were there on xyz date. Thats why you thought you could skip last week

 

[cbartowski]

but weren't there only 12 seminars? so you went to 10/12 which is fine?

Actually you're not going to fail, there's only 12 seminars my bad so all good .

 

[obliviousninja]

But hasn't he gotten the letter? Iirc OP mentioned how he already used his 2 allowed jiggs, then used another. So that would put OP at 9/12

Actually, it's not against NSW law to do that: http://www.kangraphotos.com/reference/p_and_c/nsw_photo_rights.pdf
