CLEA Masstercursos master course

[eLearner]

eLearner, you are wrong on some points. For one, I was the first to ever have a degree from my university evaluated by WES USA (this was this year btw, and coming from a Nordic country). As you know, WES is the only FCE that some schools and employers in the US accept. They might not be the best choice but I was required to use them, so that is what I used. I'd jump for joy to be able to use Validential, who'd probably equate my Bachelor's to a Doctorate's ;D

I was typing out a long answer, but in the end none of this is relevant to the thread topic so I'll stop replying to those aspects here.

I honestly expected reading in Spanish for Masstercursos to be a lot more work, but it's really no problem with the pop-up dictionary. I encourage anyone who's considering these courses to just take the popup dictionary route. The only problem I'm having is I think the standard Kobo popup dictionary must be a different sort of Spanish than what the texts are using, because it can't find a couple of the common words. There are various solutions to that however so it's not impeding me.

But you don't mention which ones, so I'll have to disregard that.

If you say so. I'd be interested to know how you would know that for sure, but to be honest it really isn't relevant to the main point. And me saying "WES has probably evaluated degrees from every school there is at this point" isn't negated by that. If anything, it's strengthened by it since a degree from your school has literally been evaluated by WES, you said so in your own case...

You're missing the point. The examples you used about what WES does are not the best examples because WES is a terrible evaluator, therefore terrible outcomes are expected from them. You choosing them or having to choose them to evaluate your degree isn't the issue.

I'm sure you're kidding, but this would never happen. Validential makes mistakes just like all the evaluators do, but it wouldn't go that far. But it is likely for WES to evaluate a legitimate Doctorate from a good University as a Master's or lower and with ridiculous reasoning behind it because they've done it before. WES has had some of the biggest doozies ever.
