Architecture, how hard is it, and do architects make a good living?

<p>Basically I was in IT but now having an idea of doing a Masters in architecture since I was good in drawings and designing in my college days and love it. Will it be possible? Will I have to cover the basics on my own?</p>

<p>Found some good resources about architecture </p>

<p>Tagalong, the first year of architecture is often seen by the schools as a tearing down of your old beliefs so they can rebuild you with new beliefs. Architects are often accused of being arrogant egomaniacs, but perhaps that is one of the few personality types that can survive the college studio experience. In your sophomore year you should begin to get some perspective and understanding on how these studio projects contribute to your overall development as an architect. I understand why you don’t want to ask some professors to explain things to you, but you should have a strong circle of classmates that you can rely on for support.</p>

<p>I would give it at least another semester to see if your feelings about the program improve. However if after another semester, studio still feels like a beating, then you should think about another major. Along with all the workload you should begin to feel some sense of accomplishment and satisfaction at the new skills you are developing.</p>
