I drop the lowest IRAT. I explain in the syllabus that this is how I handle IRAT absences, regardless of the reason. If the student then has a 2nd absence, then I start asking about bona fide excuses, but it rarely gets to that point.

Very easy.  Zero if they miss it without bona fide excuse, just like a test.  If one is late, no extra time.
