Studied engineering in Switzerland ~20 years ago. System was 1 main exam at end of school year in June, if you fail for some subjects you can get a redo in September (punishment being need to study during summer...). There are many many subjects where I almost never attended class (I spent a LOT of money photocopying notes taken by more assiduous classmates though, bless their souls) . One time I showed up for a final exam in a class where I hadn't attended a single lecture, and I was actually friendly with the professor through other channels, and he was like aha didn't know you were in this class and we both had a good laugh about it and he didn't take it as an offense to his teaching. The system worked great for me, not sure whether it still continues today or not.
