The supply and demand of graduates currently is not in an equilibrium stage,and despite the efforts to expand STEM opportunities, the number of college students pursuingscience and engineering is stagnating. 7 Stagnation continues when unemployment is at recordlows for S&E graduates, this dynamic defies the “invisible hand

It is not surprising thatmost studies have found an inverse relationship between being absent from the class and courseperformance10,11,12,13.Studies have been conducted on the inverse relationship between absenteeism and studentperformance in different courses at college level.
