Obviously there are lazy students everywhere.
However, how common is it for less than 10% of the class to show up elsewhere? (USA, CAD, UK, AUS, NZ...)

The first school I taught at put all the female FT's to the younger grades. Many of the females had higher qualifications than the males but the school's feeling was if you are female than you can't teach senior grades.

One of my classes last semester began with 88 students, and reached a mean of around 60 throughout the course. On the day of the final exam, I had 102 students. This kind of behaviour surpasses "laziness" and drifts out into a dead sea of intellectual sighs.
