Hartelijk bedankt, Lianne!
Lianne van de Ven Jul 9, 2013:
Nadia, als het in de context past kun je er misschien nog 'Bulgaars Matura-staatsexamen' van maken.
Nadia Borissova (asker) Jul 8, 2013:
Many thanks for the answer(s), Lianne. Yes, this is the "eindexamen" in NL, but I am more inclined to use your second suggestion "Matura" and to translate this as "Matura staatsexamen". This is exactly what the source text says. I hope that the people from Nuffic in Belgium will undestand it.
Nadia Borissova (asker) Jul 8, 2013:
Thanks for the question, Lianne. It's a Bulgarian diploma. I am not sure if I should translate this as "matriculatie staatsexamen". These are state exams at the end of the secondary education. All students have to take them.
Lianne van de Ven Jul 8, 2013:
Any more context. English from which country? What secondary education?

eindexamen

Staatstoelatingsexamen komt een aantal keer voor op het internet, en dat zou de letterlijke vertaling zijn, maar zie wikipedia:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matura
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 Albania, Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Italy, Liechtenstein, Macedonia, Montenegro, Poland, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia and Switzerland, as well as among Ukrainian émigrés. It is taken by young adults (usually aged 19 or 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.

Dit komt overeen met wat in NL het eindexamen wordt genoemd:
http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eindexamen

Dit komt in NL overeen met een toelatingsexamen voor universitair onderwijs, afhankelijk van het niveau van het eindexamen.

Hoop dat dit helpt.
