i can never be bothered to go in, they have already given me one warning. but im doing all the work. i much prefer working from home.
what do you think the chances are of getting kicked out? can they really kick you off the course for doing the work at home? has anyone actuallly been kicked off a course.
im in year 2 of 2 of my course. although last year i got an E

People can get kicked off, they have no responsibility to keep you on it if you don't work for it.
Secondly, this should be in student.
Second, college is about more than just the work. It's about preperation for later life.
Yeah, you like to be at home? woo. Lots of us would like to work from home all the time, but you can't always do it. Just like when you leave college and get a job they will most likely expect you to actually make the journey to work every day. Shock and horror!
In essence, start going in. (Or enroll on a correspondence course)
Hmm, everyone has assignments though, and my guess is that the rest of your class with assignments are still going in to college.
You don't need to produce excuses for us, but to be honest if, when your college ask you in to discuss whey you haven't been attending you say "well I've been a bit down and I had an assignment" then they probably will kick you out, yes.
"im feeling abit down lately"
Join the rest of the world, unless ya win the lottery your gonna have to make effort and make something or your life and you will have to earn it, by skipping college all your doing is getting into a bad routine

Eek they did this to me, because i missed a few lessons, well to be honest it was probably more then a few, but i was trying my hardest to do all the work and was getting behind with it and ended up not going to lessons, stupid i know. but they kicked me out or warned to for a while and were more concerned about there attendance records then me passing the course.
maybe you should talk to your teachers and explain your doing alot of your work at home because you find it easier and see what they can do about it from there
as GWST has said you are missing out on alot of tutorial support, and also if they can't see you working then that wont reflect favourably on you.
The college you are at will have a vested interest in having people in lessons related to funding and pass rates. With your track record of E last year, you aren't in much of a position to argue your case.
If you are finding academic study a slog, why dont you speak to your careers advisor at college OR try here Connexions .
The worst thing you can do is nothing; either try and start going to lessons (VERY ADVISABLE) or look for something else that interests you.
You COULD try an Open University course or similar home training scheme, but alot of people find completely independant study VERY hard and it requires an extreme amount of personal discipline.
My upstairs neighbor has been studying with the OU for 10 years and got no where.
when/where was this (if you dont mind me asking ) ?
Shit excuse but that was my reason.
