You have both mods in? I ask because you're not suppose to have two different core mods in your game as they conflict and cause problems unless otherwise. I find Nraas way better than AM because you have more options. To change skills with Nraas, select your sim Nraas> Advance> Skill Level. From there, pick the skills you want to change and a pop up will come up telling you put in a number 0 - 10. Take any screencaps of Uni yet? I'm running both with no issues. I haven't gotten to actual University stuff yet, like I said, I'm figuring out mechanics for future Jefferson Show episodes.

Outside the Uni world, no one is affiliated with the social groups. Also, when you get to level 7 of any social group, you get to have another trait to pick.

So, my University Sim keeps getting invited to parties but not one damn person is there when he shows up. The hell?

Weird. I was dating Bella Bachelor as a teen and when I installed Uni, I suddenly became Jock because she was level 6 jock. Also, pretty much everyone in the standard town have some sort of affiliation. Then me being nerdy and doing nothing but science, blogging, and writing books as a teenager, I raised in Geek to 10 pretty quick (and my N7/Mass Effect phone skin).
And, yeah, the parties suck. It seems like the whole greek thing was a last-second decision, as besides being a house of same-gender sims, there's nothing unique about greeks. From what I've seen, you can't pledge (I wanted Bella to pledge the sorority), and besides partying every night (which boils down to them wanting me to get drunk or have sex... like me in reality, I don't drink, and I don't believe in pre-marital sex, so I'm never going to be "sim" enough for their dares), they don't do anything unique as compared to any other dorm or housing that has roommates.

Nope, but I've see plenty of pictures of it. It looks amazing though.

I have it, but it's left unopened somewhere around my desk right now (unless my sibling already started playing it).

I might be able to get, so who knows. Also, there are video reviews online if want to check those out. From what I know, people hate how often the kraken shows up when you're living in a houseboat, the town itself is very colorful and beautifully decorated, and the underwater looks AMAZING!

I just want to say, updating AwesomeMod is really a pain in the ass.
Edit: Said screw it to AM and loaded up NRAAS story progression with the optional relationship and skill modules plus Master Controller and the cheat function for that. Anything else that you guys would recommend?

That's all you need. I use Nraas and some miscellaneous mods. Do you use custom sliders?

Around $40 for expansion packs and I think about $25/30 for stuff packs. Of course, prices have gone down, but those are the prices for when they are new.

Don't forget, EA Origin and Amazon both do pretty awesome sales in regards to digital copies. Doing something with my Sims 3...I think my babies are f***ed up.
