@tjstkdn: You can use either "as a whole" or "in general" in your original sentence. I didn't word it very clearly, I'm sorry!
"The family agreed as a whole that they should buy a dog."
"Your argument as a whole does not make sense."
"As a whole, my experience in Paris was positive."

are they at the same level in terms of 'formality'?
like, kick ass is kind of slang so i want to make sure my sentence sounds natural!
haha okay so you mean 'as a whole' works perfectly fine?

I'd say the two phrases are at the same level of formality/commonality. Your original sentence sounds like what I would hear a native say.
