In Pakistan’s scenario, the different types of secondary education (Matric & F.Sc., DAE, and O & A levels) emerging from various early education systems are identified in the literature as imparting unique skills in students. Upon entering the schools of architecture these skills can be found helpful or not by students and define the way they perceive and experience architectural learning. This in return has some pedagogical implications for architecture schools. Through extensive research in 14 architecture schools in Pakistan, the current study explores the types of early education students had before joining the schools of architecture and what is their perception about its usefulness. Data is collected through both the quantitative and qualitative means and analysed using SPSS and Nvivo 12. The findings show that students have found the O and A levels education most helpful in learning architecture, primarily because of its training for critical thinking.
