I'm a college student. After 2 years of studies, my interest in attending classes starting to fade away. I'm studying law. This is a stupid question (yeah, i know). But tell me what u think. What should i do? and help me, tell me what can i do to gain interest to attend class?

The thing is that, in my country, attendance is compulsory. Maybe u r right, maybe i'm losing interest in studying. I hate that fact. I need around 300 bucks (around 85 USD) to drop any subject. So i can't drop it. But if i don't attend the classes, i will be barred. And, i can't simply change my major.

Never too late to change a major. But in either case, never quit taking classes either. It will be hard to go to back to school if you drop out.

Loosing interest in attending classes is not the major problem. Losing interest in studies is the major problem. Now you are in yellow line.If attendance is compulsory for sitting in exams, you have to attend and show your face and come out from the class room and meet your professor and explain the problem.But the exams performance should be good to tolerate that mistake. Try to enjoy the studies now, later you can enjoy the life. Don't make your life miserable for silly reasons. All the best.

Suck it up! If your studying law I'm guessing your a reasonably intelligent person, you know the importance of attending class you know how important an education is.
How could the classes be more interesting? puppets? If you know all of the content in the class apply to get the credits without having to take the course most colleges will let you try. Then take harder courses.
If you don't know everything then move to the front of the class and pay attention. if your not getting 100% on everything then there's still room to improve. It's your job to challenge yourself.
If you really can't sit through a class and pay attention. (my longest class is 3 hours I can't imagine yours would be any longer) then you need to speak to a doctor about getting on ritalin or something similar.

School isn't for everyone. Just ask yourself why you are attending classes in the first place. If you have concrete goals that you are trying to accomplish, and these classes are a step towards attaining those goals, then suck it up and go to class. If you are attending school to make your parents happy, or are just trying to do it for the sake of a useless degree, you might consider dropping out and finding a career that doesn't require a higher education. There are many successful, happy people in the world that don't have college diplomas.

Take more notes. Do things to make yourself become more involved in the lecture rather than feeling like you are going to fall asleep. Get plenty of sleep the night before. Do the required reading and research so you know what they are talking about. It may seem boring now, but just think how bored you would be years from now working some dead end job that doesn't pay jack. You are going to be making the big bucks as a lawyer in the future. If that isn't motivation, I don't know what is...

You need to look at why you don't enjoy class anymore.
College is the time when you SHOULD be enjoying the options available to you. Are the classes all very tough? What?
If you are losing interest NOW, what's going to happen when you go to law school?!
Don't waste your money--find fun classes.

If you don't have enough interest to go to class, why do you want to do law for the rest of your life? Maybe you should change your major.

Leave college & get a job. Why waste your life, of which you only get one, doing something you don't like.
I left school in Year 11 because it was so dull. I own my own company, now, & don't regret having left at all.
Some people just aren't cut out for scholastic achievement.
