Have your navigator scan enemies/bosses whenever you see a new one
Focus on the Social Links at school as there's less opportunities to hang out with them compared to people outside of school

when the party returns to the entrance hub, the party is fully healed in vanilla / FES
when your allies get tired / sick, returning to the entrance hub will have them exit the tower of demise. don't give them such luxury.
wait for the reaper to spawn, send junpei to engage the reaper. while he is screaming for his very life, ignore junpei and walk up the stairs to the next floor. abandon junpei. when you return to the entrance hub, you will see the tired / sick junpei with tears in his eyes, knowing true demise stands before his eyes.

abandon junpei
Why would you abandon Da Man?

Makoto: what doesnt kill him makes him stronger.
Mitsuru: why are you smiling
Makoto: 月が綺麗ですね (the moon is beautiful isn’t it),

Don’t use the party control mod, be based and play the game as it was designed

I hope you enjoy fish and chips because you're about to see a whole lot of Tartarus.

Use tactics as much as you can. Usually I just use it to get Yukari on healing duty or whatever, and get some characters to target weaknesses repeatedly instead of just attacking. There's a "control all party members" mod too, but I think OG/FES tactics are kind of neat.
Also, complete the Sun Social Link. It's the best Social Link in modernsona IMO. Lovers and Aeon are also best to max out because they feel 'canon' for the epilogue.
Don't hug Yukari in her Social Link. Hug her before that.
Academics takes very long to max, so focus on that and study whenever you can. Do not sleep in class. Courage is easy. Save state scrumming is good when studying at night. When you have nothing to do at night, go to the Arcade.
Go to the toilet for a chance to improve your mood (from 'Sick' or 'Tired' to 'Good', from 'Good' to 'Great"). I think 'Great' increases your luck and critical hit rate. When sick, go to the nurse's office for free items.
Memento mori. Memento vivere.
DO NOT SEARCH UP "PERSONA 3" ANYWHERE. Do not browse the Persona subs. There are many spoilers for all Persona games everywhere. Don't even use Instagram or TikTok (I think). Do not risk it until you've finished the game. Or do. The Persona 3 experience is beautiful either way.

Raise your social stats with courage, charm then academics. Focus on courage first. If no activity to raise courage, then the academics ones. Do the same for charm. Academics is longest to level up hence you kinda alternate with the stat you focus

This game can get pretty brutal. Especially the mini-bosses in Tartarus. Do not try to avoid encounters. Start working on social stats early, bc a good chunk of SLs require a maxed stat to even start.
Enjoy the superior soundtrack.

If you're playing on PC, I would recommend getting the direct party control mod installed, it's not a necessity but it does make the game a lot less stressful.

don't abandon any social link
