They also offer a 14 day free trial and I've never had a problem in quitting my membership. The website also has tutorials for visualization for rendering and creating diagrams which is a must in school. ThinkParametric has introduction crash courses on the basics of every software and then delves into the computational side of grasshopper and Dynamo, and then has 'Project' based courses where you go through existing projects from famous architects and recreate them, which I found to be really really valuable in school, especially when you want to get into really complex designs. On to answering your question, I've had a subscription to when I was in grad school, and it was alright, but I found much greater value in joining the websites called ThinkParametric and Black Spectacles, which are both specifically targeted at architecture. Revit is very important as well, especially for professional practice, but 'academic' Revit usage is miles away from 'professional' Revit usage, and there's just so much you won't learn in school that you'll have to pick up in a firm. This familiarity with grasshopper will help transition into using Dynamo with Revit later on, which is highly sought after (at least here in Seattle) as computational design keeps gaining momentum.

I would say Rhino is invaluable to learn first because it is of course user friendly and intuitive, but has grasshopper integration which is VERY valuable in getting familiar with a scripting environment. Finally, a question I can answer! As a recent graduate with 2 architecture degrees and experience in 3 firms I have some advice.
