I am an architecture student, currently miserable in architecture school. I thought if I stuck through it I would like it better, but 3 years later, I still don’t like it. I don’t like the idea of being a glorified artist doing work that doesn’t matter in a world full of leaders and engineers actually doing things. I hate the long hours, the excessive amount of stress for stupid decisions, and the little pay and low glass ceiling. I definitely want to get out. What would you recommend? What avenues out of the profession can I take? I am thinking of getting an MBA or engineering degree or both when I graduate from the hell hole degree I chose.
