My name is Sajjad Rasaee , I’m 26 and I’m from Iran.
I’d like to undergo a plumbing apprenticeship in Germany.
Unfortunately I didn’t care much about studying and school courses during my high school life (because I was studying in a field I didn’t like) so I have pretty bad grades, but during my associates degree I found my beloved field of study and graduated with very good grades and notes.
I’ve also completed some related courses about plumbing and welding in vocational Centers , (around 3,500 hours of training).
Do I have a chance with these facts ?
Please guide me , thank you in advance
