Architecture 2017 Entry!

Scroll to see replies

I've had an email from nottingham but nothing mentioning about portfolio! How come you're doing an EPQ?

I'm doing an EPQ for University of Bath as they'll offer an alternate offer. Not sure for Edinburgh but universities in general have until May to actually give you information about offers/interviews. It ranges widely.

How long does it take to get a portfolio request from Nottingham in case I make it thus far as I intend on sending UCAS this coming week and I'm going on mid terms the next and don't want a portfolio request whilst on mid terms

i know, I've been asked for 10-20 images in a variety of media for the 21st october, looks like I'm going to busy haha

also, has anyone had any experience with model making? i'd like to do one to put in my portfolio as it seemed to be rather prominent in what they were asking for
Anyone in London and free in a fortnight (Mon 24 Oct) with £15 spare might be interested in https://www.museumoflondon.org.uk/museum-london/event-detail?id=88608
"Video games and architecture: cities in virtual worlds"
Simulating the City

London is an ever-changing city. The city’s skyline is constantly moving and societies are shifting, reflecting its adaptability to social change. Three-dimensional game cities are neither static environments nor stationary views. They are experienced through movement, action, play and immersion. In this talk, Director of the Interactive Architecture Lab (Bartlett School of Architecture), Ruairi Glynn, will be joined by Dr Diane Carr (UCL), Nic Clear (Greenwich University), Usman Haque (Umbrellium) and Bartlett School of Architecture graduate Ed Mascarenhas. This panel of experts will explore how video games can be used to investigate and enhance our concept of city and space.

Applying for Bath, Cambridge, UCL, Manchester and Edinburgh. Predicted A in Maths, A in Art, A in Chemistry and A in EPQ. Been a week since I applied, but I haven't had any offers I've just had emails about the SAQ for Cambridge and the drawing task for UCL which is in for the 25th October for me. Should I be worried about not having any offers yet? and how are you all doing with the drawing task for UCL? I'm kind of dreading it tbh.
