I am a sophomore in high school and I am trying to deceide between a degree in Architecture or Engineering (structural or cival). I love math and I am good at it. I haven’t taken physics yet but I believe I will be good at that as well. I have been reading this thread and I am so confused over all the different abbreviations! I am assuming BArch is Bachelors in Architecture? and MArch is Masters?
My mom says I would have an advantage in either field given that I am a female. I don’t know if that’s true or not.
I am starting to look into colleges and would be interested in peoples opinions on good schools for both Arch and Engineering. I live in TX and with my grades I would be gaurenteed acceptance into any TX state school upon graduation, however I am also interested in knowing what out of state schools are good.
Thanks ahead of time to anyone who may read na danswer me.
