this post should be in the Virtual Villagers: The Lost CHildren forum so that it is with like minded posts
(i am assuming you are talking about VV:TLC)
the order you choose to buy your techs is completely up to you
people have a variety of different strategies, although i would say that Engineering is probably tops

I personally find that buying the techs in order of price (cheapest first) aligns well with a smooth strategy. With maybe a couple swaps, depending on immediate need.

Engineering first for me, then Exploration if I can manage it; If I'm not doing that well I might be forced to get Farming.

First I buy farming, then I buy engineering. I learned the hard way to do it this way. Then, farming again. After that, it doesn't matter so much.

If I can manage it, I avoid buying L2 Farming until I'm ready to buy L3 -- in a best case game, I would buy L2 Engineering first, then L2 Science, maybe L2 Exploration, then L2 and L3 Farming, then L3 Science and finally catch up on the rest.
The science techs help getting tech points, so I feel like it's silly to leave them until last, when they don't do me any good! Almost fully with you there squawky, except I sneak in L2 Medicine before going on to L3 And totally agree that there doesn't seem much point leaving exploration and science tech for last, since they both help towards getting tech points much faster
