Bachillerato external exams
in Valladolid
Taking Bachillerato (sixth form, ages 16–18) as an external candidate means sitting every subject in one go, with no daily classes and no continuous assessment to fall back on. We prepare you subject by subject, using the official syllabus and past exam papers.

Specialists in preparing external candidates.
As an external candidate there’s no safety net: no coursework, no class marks and no second chance during the year. At mundoestudiante we plan your preparation subject by subject, with a teacher who works with you one-to-one and sets the pace you need to be ready for the exam session.
Classes for the Bachillerato external exams
Each subject is examined by its own panel, with its own marking criteria. That’s why studying the syllabus isn’t enough: you need to know how the questions are asked. We work with official past papers and our own materials, tailored to what actually comes up.

Extended, flexible timetable
We adjust frequency and intensity to the exam calendar, with intensive sessions in the final weeks.
04
Specialist teachers
Teachers trained in the method and in each subject of the exam, not students giving the odd class.
Frequently asked questions
What people usually ask us.
Who can sit the Bachillerato external exams?
The age and qualification requirements are set by each year’s official call. In the first session we review your specific case — age, previous studies and deadlines — and tell you whether you meet them and what documents you need.
How long does it take to prepare for the Bachillerato external exams?
It depends on your starting point and the hours you can put in. After the initial assessment we give you a realistic estimate of the weeks and sessions per week you’ll need to reach the exam session with time to spare.
What are the classes like?
We apply the Barbeito Method: no lectures, no whiteboards. A teacher works directly with you, pinpoints where the real difficulty lies and builds from there, with our own materials and official past papers.
Can I combine it with a job?
Yes. It’s the most common situation for this kind of preparation. We adjust the frequency and timing of the sessions to your working day, and step things up in the weeks before the exam.
Do you work with past papers?
Yes. They’re the best guide to what gets asked and how it’s marked. We do timed mock exams and mark them using the official criteria so there are no surprises on exam day.
Do you offer classes in person and online?
Our Valladolid centre is in Mantería, at Calle Santuario, 20, right in the city centre and two minutes from Plaza España. We also have our own online platform for anyone who prefers to study from home.
What makes mundoestudiante different from other tuition centres in Valladolid?

Can I ask for information with no commitment?
Yes. We offer a no-commitment initial assessment session. You can email us at info@mundoestudiante.com or call us on +34 983 52 50 01.
