Answer
Hello Pravitha,
Normally basic maths are required for a Bachelor degree in Architecture.
You will not be using calculus but need math above the 10th grade level.
Here is a sample course offering from Texas A&M University and required levels of physics and math:

You should contact the university you wish to attend and ask exactly what preparation in math and physics will be required.

Expertise

I am interested in the artistic and theoretical aspects of architecture and urban design/planning. I can discuss the progression of classical to modern architecture, the general stylistic and technical development, the formation of towns and cities, the background and training of architects. Ask any question relating to the profession, working with an architect, background information, etc.
