    The tutoring time. I cannot understand how it takes about 5 hours each time and earn only 100 with 10 skill points. How do you manage with that milestone,"Tutor 5 times'?

      What I did was after my sim had completed her first week in school, I did not have her return right away. I had her take a week off from school, it was during this time I had her complete the tutor 5 times and also the attend lectures.

      I waited for the weekend, then did Tutor 5 times in a row. The first time took the full 5 hours, but my sim bailed out early on the second session because of critical needs, and the last 3 times he only stayed for a few minutes each. I had to spend awhile fixing his needs after he finished but that was still much better than putting 25 hours into it.

      I used days when my Sim didn't need to attend classes or work for this. Usually before or after spending some time learning robotics. Took her a while because I only did 1 session per day and she was a busy woman :)

      I want to use your way for my new sim. I've never thought your way. I had to use 'seldom sleepy' for completing this. Thanks. :)

      Oh I just tried to stop tutoring and get out of the building but it didn't count. Will it work only for running out of needs?

      Yea that's we can do without risk. I'm still wondering how come tutoring can be much longer than regular class time with professor.

      Yes, letting them run out of needs seems to be the trick. I also tried making my sim quit early and found it didn't count. It only counted when he quit on his own.

      Then I have a good idea. Just low down all needs on purpose just before getting into the building for tutor, then leave the sim inside until the needs run out, then it might be count. :D My sim will blame me I'm pretty sure. LOL
