by Y Tian

Created on: July 15, 2010

For some Sims, science is merely a lesson they have to suffer through when they were young. For others, they have always had a dream to become a Mad Scientist. If your Sims’ lifetime aspiration is to become a Mad Scientist, then you’ll need to put him/her onto the Science career path. To succeed, your Sims will need to build up Cooking, Logic and Cleaning skills.

Level 1 – Test Subject

As a test subject, your Sims earns $217 per day of work and works from 11am to 5pm every day with the exception of Friday and Sunday. In order to be eligible for a promotion, your Sims will need 1 Cooking skill and 1 Cleaning skill. Successful promotion will earn your Sims $322 (the next level’s wage) with a bonus of $644 (double next level’s wage).

Level 2 – Lab Assistant

Successful promotion will reward your Sims with $525 as well as a bonus of $1,050.
