Aragón PAU Design · Give each week a clear focus.
8 weeks · About 7 hours per week
Acceso a grados - información general & Acceso para mayores de 25 años
Map the full Aragón PAU access routes (Bachillerato/CFGS, over-25, over-45, over-40 with professional experience, graduates, foreign studies) and record for each one: who qualifies, which exams or documents are required, and which body administers it.
Build a one-page comparison table of the four access routes in scope this week, listing exam structure, scoring formula, and key deadlines side by side.
Explain in writing how the PAU phase (fase general/obligatoria) and the voluntary phase (fase específica) differ in purpose, weighting, and effect on the admission score.
List the specific documents an Aragón candidate must submit for the over-25 route and identify the ones that require advance preparation (e.g., certification, fees, registration form).
Your checkpoint
A dated master calendar plus a route-comparison table covering domains 1 and 2, checked against the official Aragón university access information for the current cycle.
Acceso a grados - información general & Acceso para mayores de 25 años
Summarize the grading and weighting rules for the specific phase, including how the two best-weighted subjects modify the admission score and which subjects carry a 0.2 versus 0.1 multiplier for a chosen degree.
Draft a personal subject-selection plan for the voluntary phase based on the weighting table of two target degrees.
Write a 300-word plain-language explainer of the over-25 access exam (structure, subjects, scoring, and pass criteria) that a non-specialist could follow.
Identify the appeal and review procedures available if a candidate disagrees with an exam result or an access decision.
Your checkpoint
A subject-weighting worksheet for two target degrees plus a finished over-25 explainer document.
Acceso para mayores de 45 años & Acceso de mayores de 40 años con experiencia profesional
Describe the over-45 access route: eligibility conditions, the interview or aptitude component, the written component, and how the final decision is reached.
Describe the over-40 route with accredited professional experience: what counts as experience, how it is documented, and what the candidate must still complete.
Create a checklist of evidence a working adult would need to assemble for the over-40 route (employment history, social security records, employer certificates) and note which items take longest to obtain.
Compare over-45 and over-40 requirements in a single table and flag the three most common reasons applications are rejected or delayed.
Your checkpoint
A two-column comparison table plus a document-gathering checklist for domains 3 and 4, with realistic lead times noted for each item.
Acceso de titulados universitarios & Acceso con estudios de Formación Profesional
Explain the access and admission pathway for holders of a university degree or equivalent higher qualification, including whether any specific-phase testing is still needed for a different degree.
Explain how a Formación Profesional qualification (including CFGS) grants access, what the admission score is built from, and how it can be improved.
List the recognition or validation questions a CFGS holder should resolve before applying to a design-related degree, and where to ask them.
Draft a short decision guide that tells a reader which route applies to them given degree holder, CFGS holder, or neither.
Your checkpoint
A decision guide for domains 5 and 6 with a short FAQ of five questions a candidate in these routes typically asks.
Acceso con estudios extranjeros & Acceso a grados - información general
Describe the foreign-studies access route: which qualifications are recognized, what credential evaluation or homologation means, and how it differs from simple recognition of a partial study record.
Outline the steps and typical timelines for a candidate with a foreign secondary or university qualification applying in Aragón, including language and documentation requirements.
Identify the deadlines that differ between foreign-route applicants and domestic applicants and add them to the master calendar.
Write a risk list of the five most likely documentation problems for foreign applicants and a mitigation for each.
Your checkpoint
An updated master calendar with foreign-route deadlines plus a one-page risk and mitigation list for domain 7.
Acceso a grados - información general & Acceso para mayores de 25 años & Acceso para mayores de 45 años & Acceso de mayores de 40 años con experiencia profesional & Acceso de titulados universitarios & Acceso con estudios de Formación Profesional & Acceso con estudios extranjeros
Consolidate all seven domains into a single reference sheet organized by applicant profile rather than by administrative category.
Resolve every open question flagged in weeks 1 to 5 by checking the official source and recording the answer with the date checked.
Write ten original practice questions spanning all seven domains and answer them without notes, then score yourself.
Identify the two domains where your recall is weakest and write a targeted review list for each.
Your checkpoint
A consolidated profile-based reference sheet, a closed log of resolved questions, and a scored ten-question self-test.
Acceso a grados - información general & Acceso para mayores de 45 años & Acceso de mayores de 40 años con experiencia profesional & Acceso con estudios extranjeros
Rehearse the over-45 interview component by drafting and speaking aloud answers to five likely questions about motivation, academic readiness, and study plans.
Re-derive the scoring and eligibility rules for over-40 and over-45 from memory, then verify against the reference sheet and correct errors.
Walk through a complete foreign-qualification scenario end to end, naming each document, office, and deadline in sequence.
Time yourself answering fifteen mixed questions across the four focus domains and record accuracy and elapsed time.
Your checkpoint
A recorded or written interview rehearsal set with self-critique, plus a timed fifteen-question mixed drill with score and error log.
Acceso a grados - información general & Acceso para mayores de 25 años & Acceso para mayores de 45 años & Acceso de mayores de 40 años con experiencia profesional & Acceso de titulados universitarios & Acceso con estudios de Formación Profesional & Acceso con estudios extranjeros
Take a full 40-question cumulative self-test covering all seven domains under exam-like timing and score it against an answer key you wrote.
Re-teach the three weakest concepts aloud or in writing, as if explaining them to another candidate, and note where the explanation falters.
Finalize a personal action checklist for the real application: dates, documents, fees, and offices, in the order they must be completed.
Review the error log from weeks 6 and 7 and confirm every logged error has a corrected, verified answer.
Your checkpoint
A completed 40-question cumulative test with score, a corrected error log, and a finalized personal application action checklist.
Milestones
Week 2: Can name all seven access routes and state who qualifies for each, without referring to notes, and can explain how the voluntary phase modifies the admission score.
Week 4: Can explain the over-25, over-45, and over-40 routes and the graduate and CFGS routes accurately enough that a peer could choose the right one using only your comparison tables and decision guide.
Week 6: All open questions from weeks 1 to 5 are closed with a verified answer and a date checked, and the ten-question self-test scores at least 8 out of 10.
Week 8: The cumulative 40-question test scores at least 34 out of 40, every logged error has a verified correction, and the personal application checklist is complete with dates and documents.
