Dear azarimy, I like this thread and every piece of your guidance. Appreciate a lot~

Though, I am having few questions here which may mislead my architectural path. Yes, I am here referencing for my future pathway.

1) I just done my SPM, probably going continue STPM because STPM is needed to enter Bachelor position in Architecture. Based on your Architecture FAQs 1.1, you seems to be explaining that SPM>Diploma can lead to Bachelor as well rather than SPM>STPM>Diploma. Is that true?

*I am actually planning to be a professional architect, so it means I must reach Bachelor position.*

2) I did not take Arts or whatever Art related subject in SPM / my secondary school life. I am not really good at water-colouring (Or should I say the sketchpads are low quality and easily torn due to watercolour usage which affect my art a lot.) where I often practice my drawing ability by drawing abstract things (Like lines, geometrics or designing patterns) with pen. Back to topic, so if I drew some stuffs and bring to interview- Would it really help?

Umm, but I heard that Bachelor position needs STPM.
Means if I don't take STPM, I can't reach Bachelor huh?

Cause I am either taking STPM or heading for Diploma if you mean it still can reach to the final stand without taking STPM.

I don't really aiming for an expensive one but I am aiming for a legit like UM or any local. Furthermore, I am paying for my own study (Though, I am studying full time).


*EDIT: No matrics, no A-level- Just PURELY SPM>STPM>Diploma (Ignore this if you mean STPM = skipping Diploma)>Bachelor>Degree OR SPM>Diploma>Bachelor>Degree.

Cause the local universities websites are very messy, link errors, points even going against of your guide. Perhaps I should consult academic counselors soon.

@azarimy: Will try my best if I see any weird and confusing points, so far no. But I really hate the link errors (Maybe the websites / school is offline). Especially the link of 'Programme Offered' and information about the programmes.

@tehtmc: Yea, I am not a bumi. Not really planning for matric. The years of study is random between one year and two years right? My friend got 2 years.

Is Taylor a Malaysian government officially recognized college?
Let's talk about Bachelor first.

Cause some uni is 'officially recognized' by other governement but the government don't.

Before I forget, I am to confirm whether local universities (Not private) uses BM as main lecturing language? My examples would be USM, UM, UiTM and UPM as noted from LAM website.

Cause I heard from a local graduated that locals use a lot BM as lecturing language.

Hey lecturers, I want to ask about course fee range for local universities.
Just a range, any university as my own reference in case I am going to fully pay on my own.

EDIT: SPM graduated, not going to take STPM.

Eek sorry, I mean PUBLIC local.
Include all level fee for Diploma until Bachelor first.

Do include the fee range for Master if it's available.

Define both 2D and 3D geometry?

My personal knowledge is that 3D means for the whole building's outer plan (exclude inner plan here first).
2D huh?
