Matura or a similar term (Matur, Maturita, Maturità, Maturität, Mатура) is the common name for the high-school exit exam or "maturity exam" in various countries including Switzerland.
It is taken by young adults (usually aged from 18 to 20) at the end of their secondary education, and generally must be passed in order to apply to a university or other institutions of higher education. Matura can be compared to A-Level exams. |
