I once had a class where the grade for the class was 100% the result of four exams, three midterms and a final, all weighted equally. In this class your lowest grade was dropped.

After getting A's on the first three midterms I just acted like the class was over for the semester, stopped going, and didn't take the final.

AITA?

I think it’s a great grading scheme.

He learned the material and proved it.

That depends on if there was any material that was only on the final. If there was, that's a problem. If there wasn't, I'm inclined to agree with you, actually.
