The Architects are... well somewhat sanely good, but remember us structural engineers too! :cool:
 
ages around here vary a lot. i'd assume for achitects there'd be a few math classes, engineering, building materials, art even? you can probably look up a few local colleges programs to get specific classes needed to get an architecture degree. you could also talk to your guidance counselor.
