What did you include in your portfolio (non-arch grads)
I have done 2 architecture classes in college, but I've lost all my drawings (I moved overseas). I've done a bit of photography and website design, but I don't do any free-hand drawings. I'm considering applying for M.Arch for next fall, is it too late to try come up with some new drawings (which I'm sure will be horrible anyway)? And are they really an important part of the portfolio? What else could I include?
quality over quantity. Do what you can, with the little time you have left and see what happens. I'd suggest revisting your assignments in the architecture classes, and improve upon them. You can always apply again next year.
depending on your memory, it may not take you very long to re-create your drawings. nowhere as long as it took the first time. (hand drawings, implying not CDs).
i've noticed that interviewers don't look very closely at drawings. (i assume to my detriment, but also to their detriment.) not even as close or long as fellow classmates look during pinups. so if you have to fudge a skittish part of your conceptual (that you had solved tight when you first created the drawing), i doubt anyone will notice.
