[GUIDE] Which Education Course Should You Choose?
Deciding what to study in Torn can be overwhelming. Some take months to complete, so picking the right path early is key. Here is a breakdown of every department and who they are best for.
⚔️ The Combat & Stat Grinders
If your goal is to be a powerhouse in Ranked Warring or Territorials.
Biology:[High Priority] The "Blood Bag" course. Essential for unlocking Blood Bags and increasing medical item effectiveness by 20%. It also gives a sneaky boost to crit chance.
Sports Science:[High Priority] Boosts your gym gains by 1% permanently and makes temporary boosters (like Vicodin) stronger. Finish this early to maximize every energy point you spend.
Combat Training: Unlocks "Weapon Experience." If you have a primary weapon you love, this allows it to level up and deal significantly more damage over time.
Health & Fitness: Increases your total Life (HP) by 2% and unlocks the "Kick" attack. Simple, but effective for survivability.
💰 The Money Makers
If you want to maximize your net worth and passive income.
History:[Must-Have for Travelers] Unlocks the Museum. This is how you trade plushie and flower sets for Points. It also enables you to find rare artifacts like Egyptian Amulets as city finds.
Computer Science: The "Hacker" path. Required for coding viruses and essential for Crimes 2.0 (Cracking and Scamming). It helps manage rig heat and allows anonymous interactions.
General Studies: Great for early game. Unlocks driving crimes and gives a 15% bonus to Hunting in South Africa (a solid early-game money maker).
⚖️ The Criminals & Specialist Paths
For those focusing on Crimes 2.0, Company ownership, or Jail-breaking.
Law: The "Get Out of Jail Free" track. Makes busting 65% easier and unlocks Self-Bailing, allowing you to pay your way out of a cell.
Psychology: Boosts your Crime Experience (CE) and skill progression by 10%. Take this if you want to reach the high-tier crimes faster.
Business Management: Mandatory for Company Directors. It boosts employee effectiveness and allows you to hike prices by 15% without losing customers.
Mathematics: Specialist track for ammo management. It makes your special ammo (Incendiary/Piercing) last 25% longer.
💡 Pro-Tips for Students
The "General Studies" Hack: > Before you dive deep into any other tree, consider finishing General Studies. It provides a permanent 10% working stat gain for every future education course you complete. It pays off massively in the long run!
Education Length: > Remember that joining a Principal's Job or using a WSO (West Side University) stock block can significantly reduce the time these courses take.
