Abitur
Abitur is the word commonly used in Germany for the final exams young adults (aged 18 or 19) take at the end of their secondary education, usually after 12 or 13 years of schooling. The Abiturzeugnis, issued after a candidate has passed their final exams, is the document which contains their grades and which formally enables them to go to university.
Abitur in Finland
A model of this also exists in Finland since the beginning of the 20th century. The test is called Ylioppilastutkinto in Finnish and Studentexam in Swedish. The official English language translation is Matriculation Examination.
