Hi Gauri,
It totally depends on your future ambitions and what you see yourself as, Pursuing MBA or MCA is a off beat course getting a popularity these days after architecture since a lot of career options opens up, but I would suggest you to stick with M.Arch (distance edu or full time).

Hi Urvi,
You need to write NATA exam and get a minimum of 80/200 in order to be eligible to take up Architecture Course. The National Aptitude Test in Architecture (NATA) measures the
aptitude of the applicant for specific field of study, I.e. Architecture. The test measures drawing and observation skills, sense of proportion, aesthetic sensitivity and critical thinking ability that have been acquired over a long period of time, and that are related to specific field of study, I.e. Architecture.

Hi Abhishek,
I agree with Rohit Saini. You could try doing at-least a diploma in Architecture with civil background and then opt for M.Arch or a better option would be to do Construction or Project management.
