Hi friends
i have a question but after searching the forum i am confused
I have a PhD and a Masters from malaysia which WES recognizes as Masters and PhD
My bachelor is from Armenia (finished in 2010). Although WES recognizes it as Canadian Bachelor, it is very difficult for me to get it validated by WES. So my situation is like this:

%%%% This is result of WES free tool to approximate ECA:
Credential 1
Country of Education: Armenia
Name of Degree: Bakalavri Diplom
Name of Institution: State Engineering University of Armenia
Equivalency in Canada: Bachelor's degree (4 years)

Credential 2
Country of Education: Malaysia
Name of Degree: Master of Science
Name of Institution: Universiti Putra Malaysia
Equivalency in Canada: Master's degree

Credential 3
Country of Education: Malaysia
Name of Degree: Doctor of Philosophy
Name of Institution: Universiti Putra Malaysia
Equivalency in Canada: Earned doctorate
%%%%%%

I can get ECA for my Masters and PhD.
I cannot get ECA for my Bachelor as i have nobody in armenia and can't go there for now.

many friends have suggested in the forum (based on my search) that i don't need to have ma bachelor validated by WES as i don't need it to claim points and i should mention it in my personal activities section and not education background. instead, just put master and PhD in education and claim points just for PhD.
I asked a couple of immigration lawyers and they have no idea --- they suggested why not get bachelor validated......

Any of friends here done this and can give advice? should i just mention my phd and masters in education section and move bachelor to personal activities?
i have been baffled over this matter for a week.... Any help is appreciated

Your PhD alone will be enough for evaluation. For express entry, highest degree matters.
