I have a question that is what it says on top. I want to becime a POSI. I am at court and the University. I am not sure wherther to do the Uni, because I like the activities at term passing 5. I want to do the court, but if it isn't worth speedrunning through, I won't. I am not equipped to finish fighting and a lot of worj to do. The cheesemonger is also out due to the cruel RNG. (WHY does shadowy have to be auch a hard story. Most punishing failure state, way to POSI requires cards as the only one...) So which to finish without buying Fate?

I apologize for any and all anachronisms. I am too lazy to check some facts if I am sure they are from the 1890s or sometimes think they are.
Oh, and by the way, I am not polish, I am GERMAN to clarify for heavens sake... tylko po polsku mowie. Um Himmelswillen...

Having finished the University story with the, er, more punishing of the two endings, and recently earned the Extraordinary Mind reputation, I feel confident in saying that getting expelled from the University isn't all that bad. You have to do plenty of work out at zee to regain entrance, and several options are gone after you do, but the important opportunities, like using plaques to level up you Scholar of the Correspondence quality, are still available. I don't remember what the rewards of Term Passing are, but I can say I haven't missed them. XD I'm sure someone who's been banished from the Court can give you more details on what that entails.
IIRC Terms passing allows you to grind your hedonist up to 12(or was it 15?), so if you want to do that you may want to keep it, but there isn't that much to it other than fun text(though I don't remember the place much)
The court on the other hand, you DON'T want to speedrun, it has 6 unique items that you can miss if you aren't careful and it allows you to get your Scholar of the Correspondence quality to 10, which if you don't have at that much, well, getting it that high up will become extremely annoying, it's also a pretty long story so it will take a while even to speedrun, so just go for the university or wait for the cards to finish the shadowy storyline.

You get a copy of your work whenever you write a novel or a poem in the court. The poems are an Epic Cycle, a Tragedy of Romance, and an Allegorical Satire. The novels are a Gothic Romance, a Tale of the Future, and a Patriotic Adventure.

Each novel/poem is a special item. It's more of a novelty/vanity/completionism thing, since they don't do anything (besides let you join God's Editors more easily, but you only need one for that).
The main thing about the University is that "Investigations at the University" is the best way to raise your Watchful, I honestly wouldn't leave until your Watchful is 200. Also, personally, I thought Term Passing was just a lot of fun even if the rewards weren't anything special. Being a completely useless professor is one of my fondest memories in FL, and I wish there was a way to get that back after your reputation was restored.

Getting banished from the court prematurely is my #1 regret with my main especially because, unlike with the university, there's no way of getting back in for the foreseeable future
