Final tests in English for 17-20 years old - MATURA
 
I love this site because there are people all around the world. I think it would be VERY interesting to compare final tests (A-levels) from different countries, so my question is simple:

Could you please share downloadable SAMPLE of the final exams young adults (aged 18-20) take at the end of their secondary education IN YOUR COUNTRY?  so called "Matura" (before teens enter the university)...

We have a 90 minutes for writing (essay, letter, short-story, article - 250+150 words), , 40 minutes for listening and 60 minutes for reading and grammar test - examples here:

I am curious :-) Thanks a lot for sharing!

Dear moravc,

Thanks for the idea!
I am interested in this topic because I teach senior students and prepare them for the final exam. I downloaded your exam grammar tasks to see what your students have to do.
 
I don �t have exam tasks in my computer because we get them only printed but I can scan them tomorrow if you want and send them to you.

It would be really valuable experience to exchange the exam tasks. And we can definitely use them for practice.

Thanks again!

Dear moravc

In Greece when students finish High school, those who want to study at university to be English teachers have to take an entrance exam in English. They have to translate a text into Greek, answer some comprehension questions and do some writing tasks.
Here is a link to a past paper of this entrance exam.
I hope the link works.
Cheers
