| see the good thing about architecture is that you don't take as many exams or do homework as much as other students, but you spend a lot more time in studio.
I also believe it's also how intense you work that will determine how many sleepless nights you will have. Again it varies for different people because some are perfectionists and some are not. Some work faster and more efficient than others. But from most students i've talked to at cornell architecture, they do pull a lot of all-nighters. one cornell arch student told me you prob won't have a lot of time seeing other ppl in the campus. during the summer program, our professor said that the first weekend that we had (before the classes started) was the weekend we would have the most free time. (they give you assignments on weekends too)
gomestar, is your gf first year? because usually students stay up for about 3-4 days without sleep to finish their projects before the end of semester.
panantha, some arch students have on campus jobs but i would say not as many as other students. it all depends on your work ethic. but trust me, all arch students (students who actually get their degrees) work very very hard. |
