My sim is in the scientist field and would like to get his "masters degree" at university. He's already making a decent amount of money, but he would like to further his education by attending school "part-time".
I guess this is not really possible, is it? My sims' class is right in the middle of his work day and he has to skip in order to attend class.
Is this the only way? Or should I just quit the job and hope that he makes more money when he applies again?
I never tried, but I think it might be possible getting a degree without attending (all) classes. If he has say 3 vacation days and skip either class or work on the remaining 2 days per term, he can focus even harder on projects, term papers and building skills. And, he can take a break from Uni between terms to save up more vacation days. This all depends on how you play, time span, and if you might not want to take breaks between terms.
What I *did* experience is that not giving the presentation has no negative effect on your grade if you focus the more on the other ways to study. I don't think we need to do everything, but classes might count more than the project. I even had a student getting A despite forgetting to attend one final exam.
