 Currently, after changes introduced by the Bologna process, master's degree programmes can be offered to any student who had completed the first study cycle ("licenciatura") and enroll in the second study cycle ("mestrado").For instance, medicine is traditionally one of the most popular courses in Portugal, and therefore one of the most selective, with some of the highest rated secondary school top students competing with the best of the best for a place in a medicine course.Normally, a student who wants to attend the Medical School ("Faculdade de Medicina") at one of the Portuguese public universities which exclusively offer this graduation course, has to get very high grades in the entrance exams (it may include exams in fields like chemistry, biology, and mathematics) and to have done an almost-brilliant secondary school course.
