It's IGN's turn to preview part of Strixhaven: Curriculum of Chaos, taking a look at exams, extracurricular guilds, and jobs.
An example of an exam includes the Magical Physiologies exam, and a success gives them an advantage when fighting those creatures. The exams have a studying and a testing phase; the test itself is two ability checks.
Extracurricular activities include a LARP (live action roleplaying) guild, a Mage Tower (a game like Quidditch but not Quidditch) cheer squad, a drama guild, the Iron-Lifter's Society, and so on. If you do one of these activities you get a Student Die every long rest which bumps one of your ability checks.
Jobs allow you to work at the Bioblioplex, Bow's End Tavern, or Firejolt Cafe, or on campus grounds.
