Access to intermediate and higher level training cycles, xHighlights FP top

Hello, Vivers! In the article we published last week, we told you What are the exams for the general phase of access to Higher Grade?. But like the majority of students who take the higher-level vocational training entrance exams in Madrid, you must also take the specific subjects, whether those from the Science, Technology or Social Sciences and Humanities option, in this article you will find We are going to tell what the exams are like for the subjects that make up this phase. This part of the exam consists of two subjects, depending on the option for which you take the exam:

  • Technology Option: Physics and Technical Drawing.
  • Science Option: Biology and Chemistry.
  • Social Sciences and Humanities Option: Geography and Economics.

You already know that this year the exams They are May 10 and 11. We are going to explain to you what the exams for the specific subjects of the FP entrance exams are like and give you some advice. And if you prefer to have Lara tell it to you, you can watch her videos from the option Technology, of that of Science, or of that of Social Sciences and Humanities.

Exams of specific subjects of the FP access tests: Technology option

The Technology option of the specific phase of the FP access tests is made up of the Technical Drawing and Physics exams.

Physics

  • Length: approximately 4 questions.
  • Duration: 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Bring to the exam the same calculator (non-programmable) with which you have been preparing for the exams.
  • If you must solve a problem in which you have to apply formulas, first solve the unknown, and then substitute the data. You will see how the calculations are simpler.
  • When you have obtained the answer to each problem, take a moment to think about whether the result makes sense. 

Technical drawing

  • Length: approximately 4 questions.
  • Duration: 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Invest in a good compass and a good mechanical pencil or 2H pencil.
  • Before starting to solve the exam, make a rough sketch to get an idea of ​​the result you expect to obtain.
  • The most important thing is that you try to be as precise as you can since the final result of each problem will depend largely on your precision and thoroughness.

Science option exams

The Science option of the specific phase of the FP access tests is made up of the Biology and Chemistry exams.

Biology

  • Length: approximately 4 questions.
  • Duration: 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Prepare the entire syllabus. Don't leave any topic unstudied, because anything can happen. If you do not have much time to prepare, try to review all the contents instead of having half of the syllabus very well prepared.
  • This subject has a very extensive vocabulary of its own, so it is recommended that you prepare a glossary with these words. With short and clear definitions, so that they allow you to identify them and use them in the appropriate context.
  • Draw pictures. For example, one way to study the cell is by drawing pictures of its organelles. If you see exams from other years, you will be able to see that there are both questions with drawings that ask us to identify what they are, and questions in which they ask us to draw them. If we have practiced before, it will be less difficult for us to do it in the exam.

Chemistry

  • Length: approximately 5 questions.
  • Duration: 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • We advise you to make a “cheatbook”. That is, extract the concepts and formulas most used in the exercises; So when we are faced with an issue, it will help us be clear about what topic it corresponds to and what we have to apply in each case. Be careful, you can't take this cheat sheet to the exam 😀
  • As you do the topic exercises, justify everything you do. It is very important that you get into the habit of explaining the answers because this way you will understand their development and acquire the ability to relate the data to give accurate conclusions.

Exams corresponding to the Social Sciences and Humanities option

The Social Sciences and Humanities option of the specific phase of the vocational training entrance exams is made up of the Business Economics and Geography of Spain exams.

Business Economics

  • Length: approximately 6 questions.
  • Duration: 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Review the entire theory, since it is quite simple if you prepare it properly. You can rely on the most frequently asked questions from previous years' exams and other similar tests.
  • For the problem part, try to memorize the formulas by doing exercises. It is the best method to keep them in your head.
  • In general, economics problems do not require very complicated calculations. You may be able to reach the solution relatively easily. The simplest solution is probably the correct one.

Geography of Spain

  • Length: approximately 7 questions.
  • Duration: 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Tips:

  • Study with a map of Spain always at your side. Thus, as you memorize the contents you will be able to relate them to physical and political geography. You will see how you learn better, and it will not be so difficult for you.
  • The technical exercises (climograms, cliseries, pyramids, etc.) have a resolution methodology, so it is important that you learn what the steps are to solve these exercises.
  • Make a glossary with the definitions included in the syllabus. When preparing this glossary you should familiarize yourself with the lexicon of the subject. 

Now that you know the structure of the exams for the specific subjects of the higher degree vocational training entrance exams in the branches of Technology, Sciences and Social Sciences and Humanities, it's time for the most fun part: studying. Remember that you can see the solved exams on our website and also the videos in which the academy teachers solve the 2022 exams on our YouTube channel.

Good luck with the preparation!

Access to intermediate and higher level training cycles

Hello, #Vivers! We continue with our online classes and continue uploading videos to our YouTube Channel. In them we include explanations of interesting content in order to prepare your exams. Today we bring you the video of an online Geography class. In it, our colleague Lara explains to her students on the access course to higher-level training cycles how to comment on a cliché.

The end dates of our preparatory courses for selectivity, access tests to Training Cycles and Graduate Degree in ESO are approaching. This year, given the exceptional circumstances in which we find ourselves, the end of these courses does not coincide with the holding of the tests. To help you in that sense, we have created a new super intensive refresher course.

The course will be taught between May 25 and June 26 for those who are preparing for selectivity and from May 18 until the tests are held in the case of students who are preparing for the Ciclos access test. Intermediate or Higher Level Training and the exam to obtain the Graduate Degree in ESO. At the moment it is not known the dates on which these tests will be held, so our review course will be extended as long as necessary so that you can arrive at them as best prepared as possible.

Online Geography classes: commentary on a cliserie

The commentary on a cliserie is one of the practical exercises that we can find in the Geography exams for access to higher-level training cycles. 

It's simple and intuitive. We will take the opportunity to demonstrate the knowledge acquired in the physical block of the subject. Also the maturity of developing a complete response, and with clear and organized concepts. 

Let's remember that it is very important to answer in writing mode. We should not use enumerations, hyphens, sections, etc. We must use paragraphs to separate ideas and change topics. 

We will begin by making a short introduction with the definition of a cliserie, in addition to commenting on the most important causes responsible for the staggering of the vegetation on the slopes of the mountains. 

Subsequently, we will review, ascending in altitude, the various species that we find in the specific exercise that they give us. To do this, we will look at the legend of the cliserie. 

Finally, we will point out the use that human beings make of each of these species to satisfy their needs. And if this relationship between man and the environment could endanger the balance of the ecosystem. 

We hope that this online Geography class has served to dispel any doubts that may arise during the theoretical study or during the resolution of one of the practical exercises. And if you have any questions about the operation of our virtual classes, about our super intensive refresher course, about exam calls or about any other matter, do not hesitate to ask us. You can do it through our form contact or by sending us an email to academia@luis-vives.es. We continue to be available to all our students from our homes to help you with anything you need.

Access to intermediate and higher level training cycles

Hello, #Vivers! We're back after these strange Easter holidays. You miss not only because we have not been able to leave our homes to enjoy these holidays. We also had to work during the non-holiday days last week to be able to make up some of the missed classes. We also continue creating and uploading videos to our YouTube Channel with online classes for different subjects, like the one we bring you today in Mathematics. In it, the Mathematics teacher, Charo, explains the topic corresponding to trigonometry to her students in the access group to higher-level training cycles.

One of the things we like most about mathematics is that it is endless. There are always new things to discover. Furthermore, by knowing mathematics we can solve a wide range of everyday problems, such as, for example, the one we present in this video.

Imagine that we are lost in the middle of a city. After walking all day we are tired and we want to take a good nap. We want to return as quickly as possible to the hostel where we are staying, but there are different routes. The question is which route is the shortest? Since we have no idea, we are going to calculate the distance of each of the routes we can take. The first route goes from the point where we are (point B) to point A and then go to the hostel; and the second goes from our location to point C, ending the journey at the hostel. Thanks to trigonometry, more specifically the theorems of height and Pythagoras, we will be able to obtain the values ​​of the two routes in order to be able to assess which of the paths is shorter and arrive as soon as possible.

Online Mathematics classes: conclusions

Mathematics opens doors. This is one of the reasons why we believe that it is important to manage this discipline, and even if at first you don't understand anything, keep fighting and don't throw in the towel. Remember what Mr. Carl Friedrich Gauss once said: 'The charms of this sublime science, mathematics, are only revealed to those who have the courage to delve into it.'

We hope that you liked our online Mathematics class and that it can help all students appreciate and value them as they deserve.

And if you have any questions about the operation of our virtual classes, about the exam sessions or about any other matter, do not hesitate to ask us. You can do it through our form Contact or by sending us an email to academia@luis-vives.es. We continue to be available to all our students from our homes to help you with anything you need.

Access to intermediate and higher level training cycles, Official Graduate Degree in ESO, xFeatured, xFeatured ESO, xMedium FP Highlights

Hello, #Vivers! One of the most requested courses at our Madrid academy is the course to obtain the official ESO graduate degree (compulsory secondary education). The majority of students who take the ESO free test also take the exam for access to middle-grade training cycles. This is so since both exams are very similar, and in many cases these students seek to continue their academic development through official technical education. As you know, the completion of a medium-level training cycle allows direct access to a higher-level training cycle that belongs to the same option.

In the video that we show you below, our colleague Lara, coordinator of the Preparation courses for obtaining the Graduate Degree in ESO and preparation courses for the intermediate level cycle access test exam, explains the differences between both tests:

Comparison between the free tests to obtain the ESO Graduate degree and the intermediate level FP access tests

In the following table, you can also see the comparison between both tests:

ESO titleIntermediate grade entrance test
Requirements to present
  • Be 18 years of age, or turn XNUMX in the year in which the test is performed.
  • Not be enrolled in any institute to obtain the ESO in the same school year in which you want to take the test.
  • Be 17 years of age, or turn XNUMX in the year in which the test is performed.
Annual calls2 (March and May)1 (usually in May)
Test StructureIt is divided into three areas:
  • Communication: Language and English.
  • Social: Geography and History.
  • Scientific-technological: Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Technology.
It is divided into three areas:
  • Communication: Language and English.
  • Social: Geography and History.
  • Scientific-technological: Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Technology.
QualificationsThe three areas are rated separatelyJoint qualification: PASS OR NOT PASS
ExemptionsThere are some ways to be exempt from any of the areas in the two tests. For the ESO degree, you can be exempt from some area if you have passed those subjects in the 4th year of ESO, or in previous calls for the free test. In access to intermediate grade, too. In addition, you can remove the Science part of access to the intermediate degree if you prove work experience of more than one year.

Main differences between both tests

As you can see, the main differences are the number of annual calls and the grading system, which in the case of the intermediate level entrance exam, is only graded together as PASS or NOT PASS, while in the case Of the free tests to obtain the ESO Degree, the three areas are graded separately, with the possibility, for example, that a student passes only two of the three areas contained in the test. In this example, said student must appear in the next call to pass the remaining area, and thereby obtain the Title.

Remember that it is essential that the preparation and programming of studies focus on passing the three areas.

We hope that the differences between both tests have become clear to you. If you want more information about this, you can consult the official website of the Community of Madrid.

Good luck with the study!

Access to intermediate and higher level training cycles, xFeatured, xHighlights FP top

Hello, #Vivers! One of the most popular courses in our Madrid academy is the preparation of the entrance exams to higher-level training cycles.

Throughout its development, students are trained to acquire a set of knowledge and skills that allow them to later access higher vocational training, a training cycle that prepares them for entry into the world of work or for subsequent studies.

Year after year, we can see that the demand for this type of training has been experiencing a boom, given that it is a bridge that, although longer in time, allows the student to reach university without going through Baccalaureate and Selectivity. 

In the video that we bring you today, our coordinator of the preparation courses for access to training cycles, Lara, explains all the details you need to know about the access test to higher degree training cycles.

Requirements to present to the higher grade entrance exams

Be 19 years of age, or turn XNUMX in the year in which the test is performed.

Generally, the exams for access to higher-level training cycles present a single call throughout the year, which in the Community of Madrid is usually in the middle of May.

Professional families and options

To prepare access to higher-level training cycles, we can choose several professional families:

Humanities and Social Sciences Option:

It includes cycles related to Administration and Finance, Early Childhood Education, Hospitality and Tourism or Social Integration, among others.

Science Option:
