Will it be harmful ? Will it cause me to fail? What can I do to stay ahead ?
Has anyone been absent before?

1) Attendance policy
2) Quizzes
3) Missing material
Those are the three problems I see with missing class. Missing material in my opinion isn't too big of a deal as long as you read the chapters your professor covered during that time. Some professors have attendance policies and some do not. The majority of mine have been pretty strict, usually only allowing two absences. My A&P class had weekly quizzes and in class participation stuff almost every class period. My lab allowed no absences. I don't know what happened if you did miss because I never did... Read your syllabus! If you're out for something important (in other words, not a vacation) it doesn't hurt to let your teacher(s) know.
