I'm in preparation for applying for M.Arch for Non-Bachelors program and I was wondering if you have any recommended architecture literature or books that I should read beforehand.
Also, does anyone have a specific programming tool that they use or the industry trend of what's going to be the mainstream software? It looks like there are four major softwares: AutoCad, Rhino, Revit, SketchUp. Any feedback on each software tool would be helpful. Thank you!
Best, Marcus

For School: probably Rhino (with V-Ray) & Photoshop / Illustrator / InDesign
For Professional Use: Revit with a working knowledge of AutoCAD
Of course your Photoshop / Illustrator / InDesign skills will be helpful in the "real world" as well, depending on your role.
