Landscape Architecture without math skills?
I am positive I want to be a Landscape Architect; however, I have only average math skills. I excel in Art class and know I am capable of the drawing aspect, but if I am getting C+ and B- grades in high school math, will I be able to pass the math requirements for a BLA degree? I think that my desire to become a LA would help me buckle down and focus on the math courses. Lastly, I am thinking about getting a Bachelors degree in Urban and Regional Planning, then getting a three year Master's degree in Landscape Architecture, as opposed to the five year BLA. I know Planners and LA's usually work together, but I like the idea of having two separate degrees. Sorry for how long this is. Any help from a LA or LA student or an Urban Planner would be appreciated. Or anybody who know's anything about the field. Oh wait, I'm not done. I have researched this question so giving me websites probably wouldn't be helpful, since I have probably been there before.

- Why don't you contact the colleges where you want to get your degree and find out exactly what the math requirements are. I'm sure a lot of the calculations you are going to do will be software based but there might be a requirement of calc or something. And check out a few schools because there might be different requirements in each school.
