Med school is a completely different story. In the past (when I was in med school) you had required attendance for 8hrs of class per day. The powers that be saw that this was too much considering how much studying an average med student must do outside of class. They began cracking down on schools. My med school was one of the last to cave. Keep in mind also that in med school, the entire curriculum is scheduled such that they control exactly what a student is doing at all times, whereas in college, the student controls their own schedule. If a student schedules 8 hours of class a day, that's their own fault...which professor should be okay with letting them skip since it's too large a load?
