So I notice to get max level jobs

You would have to ignore your studies.

I don't think that's correct. It's more the case that you need to run several generations accumulating traits to be able to do well at the core studies and have the energy left over to build up a career that require a lot of additional training.

you would need multiple trait, through multiple generation to get enough passive stat.

Well I noticed that when I went for white collar job, I got specialist doctor when I got 750 on the final exam, and also when I got something in the high 500's. The difference between the 500's and a perfect score is a ton of work and it didn't do anything.

So I realize that you definitely don't need to max out your exam score to get the highest job in all fields. I got other really high paying jobs with 500 level scores as well. Including the stock broker that gives an allowance of 100 per turn, which was only high 500 or low 600.

Overall I think it is more important to max out any career skills, than it is to max out the exam. So you can some what ignore your studies and be okay.

Some "top" jobs are certainly easier to get than others. I managed specialist doctor in my first generation, which came as a bit of a surprise. But it's fair enough, there are a lot more doctors around than top-end media stars. Indie Musician (4/6 on the Music track) earned better than Specialist Doctor.

Yeah, I am thinking all the default paths suck no matter what. If you want something better got to buy the other job paths in the shop. Of course, that is just assuming you go by what you are paid. If you get caught up in the concept of the game, then you of course want to get paid as much as you want. Though it is entirely valid to goof around.

In fact, if you aim for a lower tier job then you don't need a high score on the ending exam. Which means you have more free time to date so you can get a good marriage(which passes on more stats from your spouse), or search for traits(which I believe is what determines the stat bonus of your child). So settling for a lower tier career might be a valid tactic for making your child stronger the next generation.

you guys realize it's different when playing as a girl or a boy? some jobs only open for certain gender and since this is chinese it's harder to find husband than wife, not meant to be racist but that's the thing.

I think it provides excellent replay value if you're the kind of person who wants to reach the top of every career path at least once.

Actually, male population is more than female. So a man is get more difficult to find a wife than a woman to find a husband.

In real life, if Chinese male doesn't have any real advantages, like poor, old, not handsome, no good career, he is very difficult to find a wife. That lead to human trafficking, because a man need to buy a wife.
