Missed work form
Hello. I've been told by my friends that you're allowed two free deferrals of tests. He himself had submitted a form to defer one of his own a few hours before it. I just wanted to know if this was actually possible without a doctors note, and if so, is it just tests that can be deferred or can labs or assignments be put off as well. Thanks!

I believe you are looking for this: http://www.mcmaster.ca/msaf/

You can defer assignments, quizzes, midterms, labs, missed mandatory tutorials, etc. No doctor's note is required. However, you must contact your prof to decide where the deferred % goes instead... For math, deferred stuff just adds on to the final.

Enjoy the start of a terrible habit.

Awesome thank you so much. Just on a side note though, is a busy week considered a valid excuse, or should i just say I was sick lol. Thanks again.

Go with sick, easiest way out and no questions asked. Look up some rare disease on the the internet to make it more believable.

Also just so you know, you're supposed to submit the form just before you're going back to school, not when the midterm or quiz or whatever is occurring or due. Just saying this cause you said your friend submitted his a few hours before the midterm, which isn't the proper way to do it.
