I'm in your situation too!
I haven't had as much fun with the Sims 4 as I did in the beginning or like I still do with the Sims 3 and the sale is putting me on the fence, thinking about buying it or not. From what I hear people love the pack but there is no way to balance out your grades and your social life, much less explore the world! I haven't seen any gameplay to stop me from learning about all the spoilers (I'd like to learn first hand what the pack entails) but most of the feedback I've been getting is positive so if you're thinking about buying something to add to your gameplay and you'd love some academia in your life maybe you should jump on this opportunity @DeadFishy
