In this episode, you learned about Sofía and Manolo’s lives at school; now find out what their experiences might be like if they were attending classes in Latin America. Do an independent Internet search on universities in Latin America to answer these questions in English.

  1. Think of a Spanish-speaking country or city you would like to visit. Find two universities there. What are their names?


  2. Investigate the admissions requirements at one of these universities. How are they different from the admissions requirements at your own school?


  3. Find a class and an extra-curricular activity you are interested in at one of these universities. What are they? Why are they appealing to you?


  4. Universities in Latin America and Spain have no undeclared majors. If you had to pick a department (departamento or facultad) to study in at one of these schools, which would it be?
