I get what he was getting at now, but damn if that didn't make me mad as hell at the time. Don't bet on being given a make up test or the professor giving you an early exam. It makes no difference to them if you pass or fail. The only person that truly cares about that is you. And you might have to make sacrifices to pass. The exam and your education are infinitely more important than hanging out at zdayz. Zdayz will be here again next year. $hit happens.

My professor has been more than willing to help out other students, so I don't feel I would have a problem with setting something up, it's just the inability to get in contact with him since the only contact info I have is the schools, which is closed...
It's for a class that doesn't matter to my program, and I'll hopefully be transferring in the fall anyways so if it bombs my GPA, it will be reset anyways. So either way, it doesn't bother me. I am just making the effort to show I've tried to contact him. I can't be faulted for doing my part.
