Scuze, cred ca este un tip de treapta de liceu (a treia) inainte de universitate, nu cred insa ca este vorba despre o traducere cu diploma de bacalaureat deoarece este vorba despre un alt sistem. Cred ca trebuie pus termenul in original si in paranteza o traducere literala si explicatia succinta a sistemului din Pakistan.

CU alte cuvinte, la facultate se cer unele certificate si anume:

Secondary School Certificate (Matriculation)
Higher Secondary School Certificate (Intermediate Certificate)
Diploma

sau cel putin asa citesc eu. Poate ar fi mai bine sa studiati pasajul de mai sus cu mare atentie. Sursa este UNESCO, daca am vazut bine pe net.
