Would you pay an extra transport cost or skip the class?
Attendance is not counted for that module.
I have three days which I need to get to a joint-U training by hkcccslm which starts at 19:30, and the last class of the day is at 18:00-18:50. The commute is around 40 minutes long according to Google Maps, so I may be late for the training if something goes wrong. Alternatively I can take a taxi which should take me just 20 minutes to get to the venue. Also, I have a cell group which lasts from 16:30-18:00, so I have no time for dinner!
If you were me, would you skip the class (or leave early), or just pay the taxi cost?

I would personally leave early by about 5-10 minutes, if it's only for a few days that should be no problem and there won't be too much work to catch up on

They can arrange for me to arrive at 19:45-20:00, which gives me no reason to skip the class!
I just need to tell them I need to be late and it's alright!
I just need to skip one class tentatively for the whole term, as there was an event at 7 that day and I was one of the committee members for that event.

Eat at cell group or alternatively let your cell group leader know that you will not be able to make it.
As long as missing cell group doesn't become a pattern, it's okay to miss it when there's literally no time to get from one thing to the next!
Be a person of integrity.

A few days ago I boarded a minibus at 18:51 to leave the university. The minibus left at around 18:55, and reached my stop at 19:06, where I made a connection. Google Maps said that leg takes 20 minutes but my experience would cut 5 minutes off their estimated time. They also said the wait for a train for my second leg is 5 minutes, but actually it's closer to 2-3 minutes, which takes two more minutes off the time required. My estimated time of arrival (with a leaving time of 18:55) is 19:35 by Google Maps, but actually it will be 19:28! This means I'm gonna make it on time!
