Art History Description: Can anyone truly understand art? A degree in Art History will attempt to answer that question! Leveraging skills such as painting, writing, and charisma, Art History students will be able to expand their cultural horizons and also provide fun facts in art museums forever.
Available at School: Britechester
Requirements: Being accepted into one of the two schools for a distinguished degree in Art History is not guaranteed, but having the following skills and factors in your favor will make it more likely. You begin with a 5/20 chance. This is multiplied by:
| Factor | Skill Level? | Multiplier |
|---|---|---|
| High School | "A" Student | 2x |
| High School | "B" Student | Flat, no gain or loss |
| High School | "C" to "F" Student | From 0.5 (C) to 0.25 multiplier to score with D-F. |
| Archaeology | 3+ | x2 |
| Selvadoradian Culture | 3+ | x2 |
| Photography | 3+ | x2 |
| Charisma | 2-3 | x2 |
| Writing | 2-3 | x2 |
| Painting | 2-3 | x2 |
| Charisma | 4-6 | x4 |
| Writing | 4-6 | x4 |
| Painting | 4-6 | x4 |
| Charisma | 7-10 | x8 |
| Writing | 7-10 | x8 |
| Painting | 7-10 | x8 |
Additionally, Sims can flaunt fame for a x2 multiplier (but will have it dropped to 0.25 on failure). Sims who donate can also see a big multiplier of x16, but a failure there is the worst of the bunch (0.125). Having a multiplier less than 1 is dropping the score a lot.
Ultimately, your final score will determine if you are accepted in to a distinguised program. There is a non-distinguished version of every degree in Discover University. If you fail to get into a distinguished program, you can take the regular version at the other school. There are caveats, so see the degrees guide for more detailed information. It also explains the difference between with and without honors.
A degree in Art History will have to start higher in the following careers. You'll also receive a signing bonus.
With Honors (>3.9 GPA)
Distinguished Degrees offer higher starting bonuses, better starting positions in careers and are further amplified if you can manage to do so with honors (having a greater than 3.9 GPA):
With Honors (>3.9 GPA)

Wow your site is like the bible of Sims...

Any one else had this issue or just me?
