Comments/Additional Information
The general matura is a national examination at the end of upper secondary general education. The general matura also grants access to higher education to adults who have either dropped out of education or their prior education does not allow them to enrol in higher education programmes. The general matura is an external examination at the national level that students take at the end of the gimnazija programme. Students take exams in five subjects. Three subjects (Slovenian (Italian/Hungarian) language, mathematics, and a foreign language) are compulsory, while students choose two additional subjects from an approved list. The general matura is led by the National Committee for the General Matura, which is appointed by the Minister. The administration of the matura examination is the responsibility of the school matura committee at individual schools, presided over by the head-teacher. The responsibility for technical and professional support for the preparation of examination materials and assessment is vested in the National Examinations Centre. The successful completion of the general matura examination grants candidates the right to enrol in first cycle academic and professional study programmes, and short-cycle higher vocational study programmes
