Can you get your architect's licence if you do the first option (B.Arch 5year program)?

[howtoarchitect]

@prettycoolwings yes.

i want to be and architect someday but im only 11 but i aspired to be one sence i was 7 and i know how hard i must work sence im the class clown and get picked on alot but always make good grades so does your behavior have anything to do with the colloge you get into? please resond

[howtoarchitect]

@MrCCW316 no. I was the class clown too. Just make sure you don't let your own behavior get in the way of continuing to get good grades and listening to your parents.

How far can you get in Architect with an Associates degree? My plan is too get an architect Associates Degree and get into the working environment of an Architect and at the same time continue my education.

@howtoarchitect Is it possible to become an architect with only a four year preprofessional degree in architecture. You don't say it is in your video, but I'm wondering if it is at all possible.

OMG

We use the same mechanical pencil!!!!

:D

[MrDanylodude]

which path did you take? which one is the best path because i personally think its the first one, but i could be wrong. so which one is the most worthwhile path to take?

[ploothable]

Personally, I like the system because it removes the people unfit for the sort of education from the schools, allowing creative people with passion to shine through, despite their inability to comprehend advanced German pluperfect inflexion and algebraic characterization of complex numbers.

I love it!

[ploothable]

In Sweden the added result of your grades can be 20.0 points. Architecture "college" grades of acceptance are at the very same number, which shows that architecture is the sort of thing that people choose just to spend their grades to their full extent. Much like law school and medicine.

But said education has a thing called "the architecture test" where they evaluate the actual possibilities of becoming a successful architect. 1/3-1/2 of all places are reserved independently from the grades.

okay so i already fucked up part one. i messed up high school but im still in sophomore. Literally my gpa right now is 2.0. is architect all college dependent. or if you have a really incredible skill for architecture can you attend an okay to bad college and still get a good job? excuse the profanity
