Question Initial Class 1 Medical. Spain vs UK?

Hi Everyone,

My first post here, hope it's well received.

I'm PPL, obtained in the UK and with a current UK Class 2 Medical. Right now I'm about to book an appointment for my Initial Class 1 Medical, so if it goes well, I can continue towards a CPL.

My question here is, where is the difference between obtaining the Class 1 in UK or do it in Spain? I know both are valid, but I'm more concern about the amount of tests. I've heard about the Spanish one to be quite exhaustive, they do run even some aptitude tests -not worried-. Anyone can describe/compare their experiences?

In the position I am I can choose to take one or the other. It's just a matter of how "easy" will be for me, or how picky could they be.

Thanks!
