You should consider taking a technical drafting class as an elective, or you should attend an after school club

Unless you want an academic career (teaching and publishing), a masters in Architecture is sufficient and respectable.  If ever after some work experience, you still wanted to go for a PhD, you would have an easier time getting into excellent schools because of work experience.

Training. There is more to it than loving it and having a little flair. It is necessary to have a knowledge of architectural styles, history, balance, color,design principles etc. Research where to get training so that you have the proper credentials: ASID.

the very fact that you are asking this question means that you are far more prepared than you think. my advice to you, is, if your school is large enough such that you have a choice in your teachers, find out who the best teachers are and take their classes. also, if your high school is decent, they will have some kind of advisory program. get to know your advisor, and your teachers. when they see how motivated you are and how concerned you are with your own progress, they will bend over backwards to help you.

There is nothing set in stone. Every college will evaluate you differently. Drawing skill is the biggest plus that you can have when entering. Theory wouldn't hurt you, but they are going to want to teach you their own brand of it. Rememebering that Architectural programs, for the most part, are professional programs, you will probably need acceptable grades and a clean academic record. \n\nWhere are you planning to go to college? Feel free to email me of you need any help:\n\nmj12@email.arizona.edu

Join the law society in your high school, if there is one.  During your school vacation, find a law firm that is willing to offer work experience to high school students, even if the experience only involves photocopying work or carrying documents.\nIf you have free time during weekdays, visit various kind of courts and watch how the legal proceedings work in courts.  It is also a good chance to introduce yourself to the clerks in the court and possibly of getting good career advice from lawyers.\nWork hard on your study during high school, get yourself into top college and law school.  Lawyer is a competitve profession to get into, you must be prepared to work hard for a long time to succeed.

It's probably easier to become a doctor, so start with med school. Then AFTER you have your doctor's degree, then go back to architect school via night classes while practicing medicine to pay the bills. Then when you have both accredations, you can choose which one to practice full time, or for the rest of your life.

You can actually get a Bachelor of Arts in Interior design.  There you learn how to use the computer programs needed to design a room, about color, lighting, and through your class projects being completed get a portfolio together.\n \nThrough school you can also get internships which will be valuble in helping you get a job when you are through school.\nThere are also Interior Design organizations etc.  One of my best friends did this.  It isn't an easy field to get into - but it is worth it if you have the passion.  I put a link to our old college, there should be some information for the interior design program there.

you have to include your school expierence, your highest level of education, that goes in first, then fill in what was that you most acquired in your school that relates to the job you are interested in. Then you should go into work expierence, any little work helps, just tweak the language so it sounds important. You have to make sure you include all awards or achievements that you have gotten within highshool, community service, any organizations you have joined.. etc.

It depends on how much work you put into it. Public school can, in fact, be really hard if you take Advanced Placement Classes, but it's worth it if you're up for a challenge. As for the rumors about the way freshmen are treated badly, those are pretty much false. Get involved. Join clubs to meet new people, go out for a sports team, or join the band. That way you'll meet kids with interests similar to yours, and you'll make friends quickly. The more you get involved, the more fun you'll have. High school can be a blast if you put effort into it!

If your school has an advanced diploma, take the classes that you need to get that instead of the general diploma. The main goal in high school is to prepare yourself to go to college. You need to take challenging classes, but also get good grades. You need a good foundation in English, Math, and Sciences, but you should also take the time to explore other interests as well. If you are interested in music, physical education, shop classes, or anything else that your school offers then take one or two of those classes. Just don't overload your schedule with all of the 'easy' classes. \n\nExtra-curricular activities really count for vet school too. It will look good for you to do some volunteer work or get a part-time job at places that are involved in animal care. Vet offices, animal shelters, farms and zoos are a couple of ideas to consider.\n\nOnce you get to college it would be a good idea to focus on sciences like biology. You don't need to worry about that too much in high school. Just try to make sure you have a well balanced schedule and give your chosen courses your best effort.
