pfs character entering slow track in middle of leveling progression?

I have a character that is level 7 and 1/3 that I am sitting on for my area to put together a group to play Bonekeep 1, 2, and 3. I have learned that there is a new scenario out that is a sequel to a previous year's scenario that the same character has played. Yet, I am in a situation where I am unable to play bonekeep 1 and 2 and the new scenario since all 3 are 3-7 in range and after 2 more XP, my paladin is level 8.

Since I was not able to find an answer on my own with limited time, here is my question: with having started a level on normal progression (1xp, 2pp), can I change to slow progression during the same level (in this case, the movement from level 7 to level 8) or do I have to reach level 8 before changing to slow progression?

Slow/normal track is determined on a per-scenario basis now, so yes.

From the Season 7 Guide, page 21:

Quote:

Slow Advancement: In the slow advancement track, for every scenario that your Pathfinder successfully completes, you receive 1/2 the XP, GP, and Prestige Point awards. You still receive full Day Job awards.

The choice of advancement is personal to your character, so it is entirely possible to have characters in the same adventuring party advancing at different rates.
Before playing each adventure, you must decide if you will opt for slow advancement.

So, you can slow track two of the three, and become level 8 after the third one.

Thank you both.

Bonekeep 3 is 5-9, you don't need to go slow.

Pathfinder, making me remember my 6th grade lessons on how to add fractions with different denominators...

Bonekeep 1, 2 and a scenario he wants to play are 3-7, and he's at 7.1 XP.

So he has to slowtrack bonekeep 1 and 2 to get to 7.2, to be able to play the other scenario.

The option to go slow track in the middle of a level was added in Season 7. Before, you made the choice to go slow at the beginning of a level and you had to stay that way for the whole level.

The new rule allows for much greater flexibility for the players.
