I'm sooooooo confused with the whole convalidating of qualifications from one country in europe to another!!
I'm a 27 yr old psych grad from the UK but am currently doing a doctorate en psicologia clinica y de la salud en la autonoma in madrid. I got a 2:1 (Hons) in my degree and i've also done a post-grad certificate in mental health in the UK and now im desperate to get a place in med school here in spain. so, here are my questions...
ps. i hope my ramblings make sense, its been a long day
I'm a 27 yr old psych grad from the UK but am currently doing a doctorate en psicologia clinica y de la salud en la autonoma in madrid. I got a 2:1 (Hons) in my degree and i've also done a post-grad certificate in mental health in the UK and now im desperate to get a place in med school here in spain. so, here are my questions...
- does anybody know what the spanish equivalent of a 2:1 from the UK is, please please help! its coz ive heard that uni's here reserve 1-3% of the total places offered for med courses for those who already have a degree..
- ive also seen for the complu in madrid, they asked for a minimum of 2.92 but i dont know what that is.. any ideas??? what would be the equivalent in a brit degree?
- is it possible to take la prueba para mayores de 25 años if you already have the equivalent of la selectividad or a degree?
- is it possible to take la selectividad if you already have a degree etc? i know that my grades in the equivalent of la selectividad in the UK wouldnt convert into 8.75 (the grade needed here in spain to get on a course) so i was thinking of studying to try and get this grade but only if they let me do the selectividad!!!
- and last but not least, would they take into consideration the post grad i did in the UK and the doctorate im doing now??
ps. i hope my ramblings make sense, its been a long day
