Buying enrolment to top schools in the US?

You had good options, but I'm surprised you passed up a chance at McGill. Perhaps being Canadian, I'm biased, but it really is an amazing school. You can't be everywhere at once I guess. :)

thanks for your response.

On a tangent, Architect is actually the most difficult profession in the world to get certified in, more than a doctor or lawyer - 4 years undergrad, 3 years grad, 3 years of internships, then 7 tests which you must pass in sequence within a 1 year period. If you fail one, you go back to the beginning. Less than 10% of candidates pass on the first try.
Sorta makes sense, since if a Doctor fucks up they only kill one person at a time, if I fuck up (or the Architect I work under since I'm still an intern) everyone in the building could die, which could suck significantly.

A little OT, but wouldn't that be the engineer, not the Architect.

Sounds way more intense becoming an Architect in the U.S, much easier here.
 
Yeah shit gets passed off to consultants now, but if something goes down, everyone involved is responsible.

And I know, I wanted McGill so badly, but there are only a few schools in North America that have an accelerated pace of study in Architecture, it isn't one of them. It really is an amazing school, I'm thinking of doing post-post grad Phd or 2nd masters there.
