Hallowed Halls, 2012

Tyisha Masters is a senior, Si'Enya Warwick is a junior (Elphy Mendenhall is a sophmore, Ericcson Frankson is a senior)

Tyisha was working hard this year. It was her senior year and she needed to get her sketches finished for her senior design show that spring. Not only was she responsible for the designs, but every aspect of the show. She needed to book models, arrange fittings and even pick background music. Thankfully she had a team of junior students that she could delegate tasks to.

SPAT, Reloaded

Since my original post, this system has proven to be a bit more complicated than I would have liked for my play style, so I tweaked it some more.  It is now much more simple and easy to calculate without depending on excel and it only uses two major aspects of simology to calculate now-skills and hobbies.

The SPAT and Colleges

I use SPAT scores to determine acceptance into Pierce University. The SPAT was developed by Laurel Crossing as a test to measure achievement for students applying to colleges and universities. SPATs are comprised of three sections: CSE (core skill evaluation), CIE (core interest evaluation) and CHE (core hobby evaluation). The CSE, CHE and CIE were discussed previously here.

While complying the SPAT scores for my high school seniors as they prepare to enter the great world of higher education I realized that I couldn't just do a simple addition of each subset. The CSE ranges from 0-70, the CIE ranges from 0-180 and the CHE ranges from 0-100, meaning a simple addition could have SPAT scores in the hundreds. Which wouldn't be a problem except most of the FSBS hoods and their universities had minimum SPAT scores in the 15-30's. I couldn't send my simmies there with SPAT scores in the 100s, yet I couldn't ask so many hoods-including mine-to change their entrance requirements.
