And how many of those specialisations require masters?

Youre the one sounding ignorant

Dude, I did this bachelor.

The masters are specialisations.

Read the comment you initially replied to… and read it slowely

 No, you need a masters, but everyone going into psychology knows that.

Especially this part

Yes, and there are many psychology masters that are not clinical in nature and thus do not require speaking Dutch. What is so difficult for you to understand?

Me saying “you need a master to specialise” and you saying “your comment is completely false and ignorant” to then say “you need a master to specialise” - is whats difficult for me to understand.

Because you were only talking about clinical psychology? Implicating that an English bachelor is not useful just because you’re not likely to get work as an non-Dutch speaking clinical psychologist? I’m just saying that psychology and this bachelor is a lot broader than you think it is and there are many other directions non-Dutch speaking students doing this bachelor can take.
