When we think of August, we picture holidays, rest, and a slower pace. But for those planning to become licensed architects in Italy, this time of year can become your greatest ally. August is not a dead month—in fact, it’s the perfect time to focus, organize your study plan, and start preparing for the Italian State Exam.
At EsameArchitetti.com, we don’t close for August. We stay fully active with our personalized, one-on-one online lessons, designed to suit your schedule—even during the holiday season. It’s the best moment to begin, without waiting for the rush of September.
🎯 Why Starting in August Is a Smart Choice
Throughout the year, it often feels like time slips through our fingers—work, family, deadlines. But in August, everything slows down. That’s why it’s the ideal moment to:
Set your study path with clarity
Focus on hands-on project training
Fill any knowledge gaps
Do your first simulations with no pressure
Begin a structured and personalized course
If you plan to take the November 2025 session, now is the time to start. You still have enough weeks to prepare—but only if you use them wisely.
🧭 How to Organize Your Summer Study: Weekly Plan Example
Studying in August doesn’t mean giving up your rest. With a smart, consistent rhythm, 2–3 hours a day are enough to make real progress. Here’s a suggested light yet effective weekly routine:
Day | Suggested Study Task |
Monday | Regulations (DPR 380/2001, ethics) + practice quizzes |
Tuesday | Project simulation (residential or public space themes) |
Wednesday | Full practical test simulation with feedback |
Thursday | Correction + readings (norms, building codes) |
Friday | Sketching exercises / hand drawing techniques |
Saturday | Optional oral exam simulation |
Sunday | Rest or light review |
This routine is fully customizable. Our one-on-one lessons are designed to adapt to your availability, even week by week.
