Congratulations

My warmest congratulations to Roz who, after 9 years of hard slog is now a fully qualified, bona fide, top drawer, superduper Architect!

I am especially proud because I helped her on her Case Study and she got a grade A for it.

The final exam to become an Architect is the worst exam in the world. It comprises of many different parts, including an 3 day long exam, (hell on A4 paper) a case study (7000 words on a project in the office) a number of assignments, monthly log sheets detailing your working experience, a CV and an hour long interview with 2 examiners.

This exam comes after 3 years for a BA Hons degree, 1 year working, 2 years post-grad design course, and at least one more year working. You can do the whole thing in 7 years if you push it. I took 8 years to qualify but 9 or 10 is typical.

Any person enduring this torture should be worthy of your respect. Well Done Roz!
