My college has upheld the rule of 80% compulsory attendance, and the over all experience has been torturous. What is your worst college experience ? :D

I don't know of a person who puts himself to torture. I haven't seen one yet who voluntarily submit himself or herself for a torture without cause. I believe that going to college is a choice. The educational system hasn't changed much and those who enrolled must attend at least 80% for them to have a chance of passing. If you don't like schooling, then be like Bill Gates or some other successful people who doesn't like to be tortured in school attendance.

Trust me, my friend, You're never going to like an imposition which emerges out of the blue and goes very much against the tradition of the educational institution which you are studying in. Worse is when you do not have choice other than complying with it. Also, college attendance is not same as school attendance, I believe, and I was talking about the former one. Your thought on this is a fascinating one though, thanks :)

Getting up early morning was difficult for me and having an odd professor that jumps from chapter to chapter in text book and expecting students to do well in class.

this reminds me of an old professor in our college who would spit while talking. Pretty gross!! we tried hard to avoid having any conversation with him.
