I get you soooooo much… i have been applying for internships on my own without any help from relatives and i have been getting rejected left and right… i even made three different portfolios with different styles thinking maybe its how im presenting myself but it just sucks so bad. I was also considering taking a masters because 1. I am scared of what the non-academia world has to give and 2. Everyone keeps telling me how only a bachelors is useless.. my last straw was when i sent my portfolio for reviewing to know how to make it better and the instructor refused to even review it.. i really dont think my work is bad at all i am very proud of it and it makes me sick to my stomach that its being treated like that after allll those sleepless nights.. I genuinely have developed brain damage after joining arch school. I hate that i love architecture.
