<p>last time bumpin*</p>

<p>i am just a junior, but I think most dedicated arch programs would look for SERIOUS interest, so think about how you might present that.</p>

12

<p>your math score is great, but whats up with the verbal???</p>

<p>most schools would rather see a high verbal than a high math, but at an architecture school it could very well be the opposite. If that's the case you've got a good shot.</p>

13

<p>except at cornell... even for architecture, i just can't see an ivy league school taking a student with 400 verbal scores unless you</p>

<p>a.) have a learning disability or
b.) aren't from the U.S.</p>

14

<p>my verbal went up to 530. I still didn't get in Barnard.. I began speak english 4 years ago... and l only lived in the U.S. for 2 years. maybe that explain the veral score??</p>

<p>Rice University is pretty good for its architecture.</p>

<p>Texas A&M architecture graduates come out making the most money from that school (but that's not too important if you really want to do architecture).</p>

<p>Rensselaer is good.</p>

<p>Illinois Inst. of Tech. is ok--some famous stuff came out of there: Miesian architecture.</p>
