After you get the Isle of Love, you can start sending people on dates. The more dates that you send them on, the more coins and other rewards you’ll earn, and the more in love they’ll fall. You can send any two classmates on a date, regardless of gender or of how high their levels are, and for every five dates that you send them on, you earn one heart, which earns them a bonus.

These dates take a long time to complete (half an hour to be exact, but if you use the exact same time lapse trick as was stated in the original article, then you can very easily complete many of them in very short order.

It’s difficult to get more rings in the game; however, every so often you’ll come across a quest that will earn you free rings upon completion of said quest. If you find a quest that earns you free rings as a reward for completion, complete it as soon as you possibly can.

As you gain experience levels, you’ll be able to build more of almost every building in your inventory, such as the hangouts and classrooms. Always maximize the number of classrooms that you have so that you can earn more books at double the speed. If you run out of room for new buildings, then start organizing them all into one little corner of your school, and build them off of that same corner with no space in between them. If you end up having to make space in between buildings, use the decorations that you have already built to fill in the space left over.

For the parties, mixing a prep with a jock earns you a cheerleader, mixing a nerd with a prep earns you a student gov member, and mixing a jock and a nerd earns you a gamer. After you earn the first of one of these types, you’ll be able to buy them in the store (albeit you’ll have to spend rings on them, so better just to throw more parties instead).

Connect the game to Facebook and link classmates to your friends if you want to earn free rings. If you have a bunch of classmates that are not linked to friends, but you want them to be, then simply sell them and start over on recruiting people. People don’t know whether or not you link them unless you tell them yourself.
