Yeap yeap ^^...I get what you mean.....really thanks alot....and I am going for the professional master (part 2). I make myself clear once again, so IPTA professional master does accept oversea and local private uni degree.

Another thing you havn't mention...

For example if I done my 3yrs degree for my architecture program (B.sc), and take the LAM-PAM part 1 exam if my degree is not accredited.

I still left two years to complete right. So, am I eligible to study the last two years in IPTA for their Bachelor of Architecture (part 2) or I only entitle to choose the two years professional master program only??

Azaramy,

Holder of a non professional master can apply to sit for LAM part 1 and part 2 exam ?

I am going into final sem of my third year in a local private university in Klang Valley.. Despite getting maintaining a >3.6 CGPA, I perceive myself as seeming to fall behind in terms of my conceptual and analytical thinking, as well as understanding of the architecture profession as a whole. I have no pride of (and sometimes despise) my work, feeling that some of my colleagues who have put in more effort deserves the grade I am getting.

I also feel that grades are a poor representation of a person's performance in the architecture course, and more often than not is heavily related to favoritism practiced by professors/lecturers.

Am I the only one feeling this way? How do you get over this phase?

Happened to me all the time. Our final presentation marking rubic clearly stated that 40% (more or less, can't really remember the exact amount) of the marks comes from our presentation board. A friend of mine was given A+ when she didn't even have any presentation board. No drawings, no photos.. basically nothing. To get an A+ we need to score atleast 90%. Since then i couldn't careless about the markings. I did way better when working and was paid higher compared to her.

I'm a JPA scholar and will be pursuing either Bachelors of Environments in University of Melbourne, or Bachelor of Design Studies in University of Adelaide, or in Deakin University.

I've passed the entry requirements for those 3 universities, but it's up to JPA now.

Anyway, I haven't yet bought a laptop of my own. Would it make sense for me to get the latest Macbook Pro 15" (the cheaper one), or should I just get something similar but way cheaper (though I'm not sure which one to get)?

And what softwares should I equip my future new laptop with?

Aza, Let's say if I wan to future study bachelor architecture in IPTS, which Uni study subject is the most approaching IPTA study subject?
I'm thinking of KLIUC, Taylor, and UCSI

first, why would u look for something similar to IPTAs?

Because if I want to future study in master architecture in IPTAs after i finishing bachelor in IPTSs, so, i can make exemption for it!!
   
btw, i'm just asking..
Ok!what about those private Uni? any opinions or idea in term of course duration, tuition fees, accredited for those privated Uni??
I mean the future brightness...

Last time (july 2011) i called the officer from UTM-space for the part time archi study... the officer told me that, those course is temporary close for 2011 intake because only a few numberies applicant... mean not enought applicant students for the class 
do u have any idea for these problem?? Should i need to wait or just give up for it and go to private Uni?
btw.. i'm the one of the applicant.

Hi Tal,
As MR Aza mentioned before, is all about the matter of accreditation from LAM for your part 1, as long as they accepted your course then shouldn't be any problem.

I was graduated from UCSI year 2010 then i obtained my part 1 from July 2011, then i received my offer for UPM B.Archi (part 2) last week.

Again, if you would like further your studies in IPTA after part 1, please prepare your portfolio for the individual accreditation

Btw, i was one of the applicant for SPACE UTM B.Archi. HAHA

Good Luck

Ic... so, are u sit the LAM part 1 privately or it automatically get it after u finished bachelor in UCSI?
can the poly student make an exemption for the bach in archi in UCSI? and how long can make it? and what about the tuition fees?
i scare that PTPTN not enough to pay for it.... 

wat about the master archi in UPM? it part time studies or full time?

I just wanted to finish the bach study as soon as possible since im nt young anymore!!

u have to sit for LAM part 1 exam privately. only accredited schools receive automatic LAM part 1 (or 2, depending) after finishing a degree.

normally poly diploma holders should at least get an exemption of 1 year (1st year). sometimes u can get up to 1.5 years, if u score most of the subjects there. it is also the same in most other schools. remember, poly diploma is quite valuable. if they offer u 1st year, RUN. u'd be better off elsewhere.
