Should it really be described as a "high school degree"? In the usage I've heard it's "high school diploma," with degrees being reserved for junior-college level and above. But has anyone a counterexample? --Daniel C. Boyer 14:24, 26 September 2005 (UTC)

I'm sorry for the many changes I made, but the article was a few decades out of date --Kajaktiger 20:39, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] UCAS

As this is the English Wiki, it would be appropriate for the article on the Abi to mention how it is integrated into the British UCAS tariff system. When German kids apply for British universities, how do they rate? This information is not readily available on the web, it's not on the UCAS website, for example, and it would be a great service if someone can provide it here. --Doric Loon 12:03, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] wrong

"It is the only school leaving certificate in all states of Germany that allows the graduate (or Abiturient) to commence studies at the university." this sentence is wrong. Its the only direct way, but there are other ways via additional schools. FreddyE 10:07, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
