Now, this is what I call an exam:
Calenzano, (20km far from Firenze, Italy),This is crazy. In Italy once you reach
graduation as an architect you're not a "real" architect, you have to attend
this crazy examination called "Esame di Stato" (State Exam). "Esame di Stato"
happens twice a year and the graduate architects who attend it have 8 hours
(usually from 9:30am to 5:30pm) to design what is asked to them: a public
library, for example, or a school, or a residential settlement for 428 people,
or the upgrading of a public square, and so on. The crazy thing is that people
have to esign and draw by hand.
