By now, you are familiar with Diedrich's "24 Hour Rule"...BUT he actually has a "48 Hour Rule." If you are absent for a test/quiz/class activity, you have TWO school days to make-up the assessment during 37 1/2 minutes. For example, if you were absent for the SAT Vocabulary: List 4 Quiz on Friday, 5 October, you must make it up by the end of the school day on Tuesday, 9 October.
