Since catching all the girls can be tricky, this can be a thread to trade tips on the game, rather than keeping such discussion hidden away in the Secrets zone.Or not. As you wish.

I bought the game yesterday and I must say that so far, it's pretty challenging, which is a good thing.#3 by hanako - Jul 19 2008
There's two ways:#4 by phoenixgirl - Jul 19 2008
Thanks. I'm able to pass the final exam now without a problem.#5 by Naiomi666 - Jul 19 2008
i found Tanya's ending to be the easiest so far. All you have to do is have enough strength then you go on a date and take her to a sports bar, but can you have a second date with her?#6 by hanako - Jul 19 2008
The first party-meeting with Rachel is just a hint that you need Cool to catch her - if you have enough Cool you'll meet her another time when you're partying after that.#7 by phoenixgirl - Jul 20 2008
Thanks, hanako. I'm still trying to get the Rachel ending but I'll do my best.#8 by hanako - Jul 20 2008
One's a bonus picture that will automatically unlock at a certain point, yes. (Five doesn't really fit neatly into a gallery)#9 by phoenixgirl - Jul 21 2008
Thanks. I shall try again. This game is challenging so far, which I like.#10 by phoenixgirl - Jul 22 2008
Sorry for the double posting here but I'm kind of desperate.#11 by hanako - Jul 22 2008
Get the two Cool 'bonuses' from the cookout and Emmanuel.#12 by phoenixgirl - Jul 23 2008
Thanks. I finally got the Rachel ending. I'll admit that it did take me quite a while.#13 by hanako - Jul 23 2008
Mmm... I think you need to spend more time in your room after you talk to the coach, but I can't remember exactly when. Try setting it up so that you do Videogames the day after you have that conversation with the coach? I really don't remember exactly when you can pass on that information, but it's either going to be an evening or a weekend when you stay in your room.#14 by eiriene - Jul 24 2008
Ok, so I somehow managed to get the very last ending, where Emma, Mario and I all end up together. But I'm assuming that there's another Emma ending (that would go between Tanya and the threesome ending) in the gallery. Except I have no idea how to get it. =(#15 by phoenixgirl - Jul 25 2008
Thanks. I got the Emma ending.#16 by eiriene - Jul 26 2008
I'm still having trouble with the Rachel ending. I can get the date, but then I don't pass the exam. Or I pass the exam, and I can't get the date. Gah.#17 by phoenixgirl - Jul 26 2008

Phew, got the Rachel ending!#20 by phoenixgirl - Jul 27 2008
Hi eirene,#21 by kauthor - Jul 27 2008
For Rachel for Ice Cream Truck, let her order, but if not, what flavor?#22 by phoenixgirl - Jul 28 2008
@kauthor:#23 by kauthor - Jul 28 2008
Well, I got all 6 pictures, but I am not sure about the Emma ending.#24 by phoenixgirl - Jul 29 2008
@kauthor:#25 by PrettySammy - Jul 29 2008
:O Boo, I'm having trouble with the Jenny ending. Does anyone know what stats should be high to get Jenny?#26 by kauthor - Jul 29 2008
Execrise and Study.#27 by kaechan - Aug 8 2008
Same here I am having mega trouble with the Jenny ending...#28 by phoenixgirl - Aug 9 2008
To get the Jenny ending, I remember that I had to have studied a lot and paid attention in class. It helps to sit up front in class and then talk to Jenny lots. Also, during the first weekend, you should choose to go outside. You'll see her then. And Jenny likes strong men so lots of exercise and sports will help with that.#29 by kaechan - Aug 9 2008
o-o I can't even get close to the Rachel ending if I tried and tried...I always fail both exams...This sorta makes me mad. If the game was just a little bit longer!!!#30 by phoenixgirl - Aug 10 2008
Hi kaechan,#31 by kaechan - Aug 12 2008
Any tips on the Emma and Mario one?#32 by phoenixgirl - Aug 13 2008
Let's see...I remember that I had to have the main character stay in the room a lot, like playing video games or sleeping. Also, you should become friends with Mario so if you do things like stay in the room the first weekend, etc., then that's possible. Then you'll eventually meet Emma and she'll want to go on a date with the main character (without Mario-that's ok). Pick choices that'll appear to her and of course, pass the final exam and then you should get the Emma and Mario ending.#33 by joannesweeny - Aug 13 2008
Really having trouble with the Jenny ending. I exercise and study a lot and work a bit for cash but she still says no the last week. I saw her that first weekend but feel like I'm missing another encounter...#34 by phoenixgirl - Aug 14 2008
Hmm, let's see. The Jenny ending is pretty difficult to get. If you do meet her that first weekend and accept her challenge to play volleyball and get a good shot, that'll help. Plenty of exercise will help with that.#35 by joannesweeny - Aug 14 2008
That worked great, thanks!#37 by kaechan - Aug 15 2008
Hmmm....I got the Emma on the couch ending. I am missing the Rachel ending. So whats the other ending. Still haven't MEGA trouble with Rachel.#38 by phoenixgirl - Aug 16 2008
I think you're talking about the ending that's in the bottom middle panel. Well, you need to get the Rachel, Midori, Jenny, and Tanya endings to get that one. It's a special panel.#39 by Baconator - Aug 16 2008
I find it interesting that people are having trouble with the Jenny ending - I actually found that one to be the easiest.#40 by kaechan - Aug 16 2008
Well...At a party I save a girl and that makes Rachel my friend...but I never get to talk to her anymore, she doesn't write. More help?phoenixgirl:

I did make a couple of posts in this thread earlier on how to get the Rachel ending. Basically, though, you need a lot of cool. What I did was do sports for Mondays and Tuesdays, rest on Wednesdays, and then party on Thursdays and Fridays. Also, it helps if you go to the cookout on that one weekend and on another weekend go to Emmanuel's apartment. Eventually, you should be able to get Rachel.
#41 by phoenixgirl - Aug 17 2008
When does that happen? If that happens on the very last day, then you may not be able to get on the date with Rachel. However, if you're able to get that event in the last week but early on, then Rachel will approach you about the date.#42 by kaechan - Aug 17 2008

#43 by phoenixgirl - Aug 18 2008
Hmm, strange. The strategy I outlined should have worked. You do need a little cash on the date but you only need $2 so one day of working should be enough.#44 by Gallagon - Aug 18 2008
I don't need any help, but I did come cross a screwy glitch in the game,#45 by Lira - Aug 30 2008
Hello!#46 by phoenixgirl - Aug 30 2008
@Lira:#47 by daddad111 - Sep 5 2008
I'm having a lot of trouble with the tanya ending. I do sports almost all the time and she never appears other then the first time. Also, is there going to be a Summer Session guide?#48 by Lira - Sep 6 2008
You need to do exercise to meet Tanya. You only meet her in sports once.#49 by daddad111 - Sep 6 2008
thanks, now I have all the endings#50 by kauthor - Sep 6 2008
Honestly, I am almost finished with the summer session guide. I just need to get the cool girl ending, but the rest I've typed up.#51 by Naiomi666 - Sep 27 2008
If you had time could you perhaps post it?#52 by Zenera - Oct 20 2008
Thanks for all these tips, but is there a guide you made to finish this... I want to find all the endings quick#53 by kauthor - Oct 20 2008
:sighs:#54 by YunMei - Dec 24 2008
Sorry if this seems a bit rude or impatient but do you still have the guide to post?#55 by kauthor - Dec 24 2008
Of course!#56 by YunMei - Dec 25 2008
Erm... could you please post it then?#57 by kauthor - Dec 25 2008

Hi everyone!#60 by jakadak - Jul 20 2009
How can I get a real date with Emma? The further I get is going to the movies with her. What is the last pic in the gallery anyway? It's Emma I bet.#61 by hanako - Jul 20 2009
The last picture is Emma, yes. If you're getting as far as the movies but nothing past that, you need to improve your friendship with Mario.#62 by Sailor Enlil - Jul 20 2009
Rechecked the game. Just don't pick Romantic Comedy. Action Movie is preferred.jakadak:

@Sailor Enlil, you said to choose Arty/Foreign movies, but in fact Action movies improves more your relantioship with Emma.
#63 by jakadak - Jul 21 2009
Thank you guys, your tips helped a lot#64 by hanako - Jul 21 2009
There aren't too many "dating sims" (where you have schedules and raise stats and such) that are full games, available in english, and non-porny. There are a handful of porny ones, mostly out of print. There are a handful of flash-based browser games which you can find on places like Newgrounds. But they're usually not very good, just full of badly-spelled swearing, drug use, and pictures cut-and-pasted from various sources. And some of them may be porn as well, I'm not really sure.#65 by jakadak - Jul 21 2009
Thank you very much, I'll surely stick around#66 by Sailor Enlil - Jul 21 2009
None that I know of in English. In fact the only other dating sim with similar gameplay to Summer Session I have played is Konami's Tokimeki Memorial, and that's in Japanese. Otherwise most "dating sim" games I've played are in fact Visual Novels, a lot of them being of adult nature (in fact I recently started playing one titled Princess Lover!, which was also recently released as an anime TV series).jakadak:
Thank you guys, your tips helped a lotI have all the pics now
Do you know more of these such date sim games? I was reading something about College Romance, looks cool as well.
