    Only because architecture degrees don't have prerequisites so they need to teach you enough engineering not to be dangerous

    (or so you design something that can actually be built)

    I didn't know what a BBCM was so I googled it. You either have a Bachelor of Building Construction Management degree with Honours or have something to do with the Betty Brinn Children's Museum which is dedicated to providing interactive exhibits and educational resources that promote the healthy development of children. Both are good!

    I seriously wish I could make as many simple mistakes, supply lack of detail and information and still get paid what they do

    I may be a little confused, IIRC Architecture is a post graduate degree and takes 2 years years on top of a 3 or 4 year Architectural studies/honours degree or equivalent making 5 years.

    LLB is the equivalent of a 3 year degree taken with another degree over 5 years. But to practice Law you also have to take post graduate studies at the College of Law.

    How are either of those longer than the 6 year double degree MBBS?

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.
