Yes, I suppose that the majority of people did at some time.
Looking back on these occasions it was a pointless thing to do, because I would spend most of the day just hanging around the local library or walking around the shops.
It would have been much easier to spend the time at school instead of marking time until I could return home.

I never cut a class, or got a detention, in high school OR college. I don't know why, but I never thought that was an option I wanted to do. I actually liked school and college, and learning things.

Nope, I never cut class. I did have lots of friends that did that though lol. They always got inschool detention for it. On occassion there were a few that got out expelled for a few days due to not showing up for the inschool detentions.

In college we would go on smoke rides and come back to class all high. Sometimes we would go to the bar across the street from the school for lunch but just drink and get ripped. In the other college I went to, one of our teachers took like 5 of us to this bar downtown after a field trip and got us all drunk. We skipped our last 2 classes. It was awesome but not so awesome having to drive home drunk at 2pm on a monday.

Yes I certainly did. lots of time. I was studied in An Exclusive Catholic School for girls and we were not allowed to go outside. There was no excuse since the security was so strict. I remember when I was in my Junior year, My bestfriend and I leaves chemistry class since it's our last subject, we go to the clinic while the school nurses are gossiping we sneak out and stay inside the clinic room and take a 40 minutes nap this go on thrice a week, no doubt I got a D on my chemistry atleast not an F if I didn't cut class I might have a grace of B or C.

I didn't start to cut classes until I went to college. When the teacher tells you that an attendence is optional, who wouldn't want to take up on that opprutunity?!!! I just stayed home, did little of house cleaning and tried to catch up on my studies.

Our high school was within 2 blocks of the Atlantic Ocean. We would leave campus to go eat lunch on the beach and it was all we could do to return to class. I probably never would have if I wasn't a little scared of my dad's reaction. I did cut class more times than I should've and have went on to regret my nonchallant attitude while I was in high school.

I cut waaay to many classes in high school and at university. At the time it was great fun; even those nasty saturday detentions becuase at least we got to spend time with our friends :) I kind of regret all the bunking I did though - I think I would have learnt more if I had gone to all my classes like a good girl :)
