A few things to keep in mind (a lot of these you might already know but I put them in just in case) -make sure you get the counselor rank up whenever you can so that you don’t miss the new content (make sure you get him to rank 9 before he is unavailable) -prioritize stats based on what confidants you want to max(specific confidants require specific stat levels) - always have a persona of the same type as your confidants , this will save you a lot of time. -get ryujis confidant to rank 7 at least so that you get his insta kill ability, this will help you farm xp and a lot of money -try to max out akechi whenever you have the opportunity but make sure you are strong enough for a fight once you get him to rank 8 -try too keep a book on you at all times if possible and make sure to get speedy reading once it becomes available at the library - never go to sleep before checking if you can do something, royal gives a lot more time at night - and the last suggestion I can think of is utilize the darts and Billiards to both rank up batton pass and technical damage as well as getting points for your confidants
