Re: Forgot exam date, make up excuse or take it?
actually this has happened to me about a couple weeks ago. im a senior and am taking a 100 level astronomy course and had a wedding i was gonna be in on saturday and didnt check the schedule and missed it completely. test is worth 10% of total grade, i'll still end up gettin an A in the class.
just man up and accept the consequences

Re: Forgot exam date, make up excuse or take it?
Take it the next morning
reasoning: you haven't been to class in about a month: likelihood of professor letting you get away with excuse = 60% (if it's a really good excuse) Expected Grade if you take exam at 10:30 = 75 Expected grade if you postpone exam = 95 Utility associated with 75 = -20 Utility associated with 95 = +25 Utility associated with 0 = -90 Suck it up >=< Make Excuse (-20)1 >=< (+25)(.40)+(-90)(.60) -20 > -44 Looks like you'll be unhappy either way, but i say suck it up and take it in the morning

If I was the Professor, I wouldnt let you off the hook after missing a month of class. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, this is where you're screwed. Professor's generally have no problem helping you out if they think you're putting forth the effort. If you haven't been to the classes in a month, good luck getting your excuse to fly, whatever it would be. The only sure-fire way to get out of it would be to do something to put yourself in the hospital the day of.
