School life’s not easy in Persona 3 Reload as you juggle hanging out with friends during the day and fending off monsters at night. You also need to study for the upcoming tests, with the first big one happening in May.
All May Exam Answers in Persona 3 Reload
Exams last from May 18th to May 23rd, and you won’t have any free time between them (except for the last day). Your Academics stat will directly influence your results, even if you answer all questions correctly. To get the highest score in your class, you need to have Academics Lvl. 3 or higher.

How to Get Academics Level 3 Fast in Persona 3 Reload
Acing the first exam can be difficult during your first run of the game, but it’s 100% doable as long as you prioritize your Academic stats over the others. Some tips for achieving that are:
- Staying awake during classes.
- Going to Wakatsu Kitchen/Game Parade regularly.
- Studying at the dorm with the SEES members.
Studying by yourself in your room or staying at the Library is always less efficient than eating at Wakatsu or playing an arcade game. The downside is being too expensive for the early game, but this can be remedied by visiting mostly Wakatsu as it’s cheaper.
To get the Wakatsu Seafood Full Course special menu (available on Monday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday nights), you need to have Charm Lvl 3, which is easier to get at this point of the game by using the Hagakure shop right next to it. But again, be mindful of your money.
The game corner features games that increase Academics on Wednesdays and Saturdays. These will cost you 3000 Yen, so only go for them if you have a fat wallet. They’re better than other options, though.
Make sure you don’t miss the group study days in the week before the exams. Not only do these have exclusive scenes unique to Reload, but they also grant a huge Academics bonus, which will certainly help you get to Level 3 in time. This is the hardest stat to level, after all.
