UTM, USM, UM, UiTM, UIAM, UPM and UKM are all good options. thx alot... my portfolio should include what ? drawing ? building drawing ? @.@ so upm and ukm finally been accredited sch ? i hope i could enter a good local uni for architecture with gud lecturer for dat... lolx...

UPM and UKM have been accredited for almost 2 years now. ok thx alot, i will work out my portfolio... 1. erm, if i apply architecture and landscape architecture for upm... i will attend 1 or 2 interview ? 2. and landscape architecture hv demand in future ? 3. and if i get landscape architecture for utm or upm, can i appeal to transfer to architecture ? 4. and wat requirement for my laptop should be ? i gonna buy a new laptop... sori dat i asked so many question... it's my future...
