Japan:
日本：
No national assessment. Individual institutions arrange assessment at the end of lower secondary education (age 15) which may influence entry to senior high school although entry tests for these are often administered by municipal boards of education. Each local senior high school selects its own pupils under supervision of boards of education and in accordance with individual board’s regulations. National and private upper secondary schools conduct their own entrance exams. Individual institutions issue a Certificate of Upper Secondary Education at age 18. This Certificate is just one of the requirements for entry to higher education.
日本没有全国性的评估考试。个别机构在初中教育结束时（15岁）会安排评估，这可能会影响高中入学，尽管这些入学考试通常是由市教育委员会管理。每所地方高中在教育委员会的监督下，根据个别委员会的规定选择自己要录取的学生。国立和私立高中都有自己的入学考试。个别院校在18岁时颁发高中教育证书，但这一证书只是升学的条件之一。

The Netherlands:
荷兰：
At age 15, schools assess whether students have acquired the knowledge, understanding and skills described in the attainment targets for basic secondary education (known as the first cycle). Pupils then enter the second cycle which prepares students for specific, differentiated terminal examinations:
在15岁时，学校会评估学生是否获得了基础中等教育成就目标（称为第一周期）中描述的知识、理解力和技能。然后，学生们进入第二个周期，这一周期中会为学生们准备具体的、差异化的期末考试：
• VMBO, pre-vocational secondary education qualification: comprises a compulsory common component (Dutch, English, social studies I, physical education and arts I), an optional component, and a sector‐specific component (chosen from: engineering and technology, care and welfare, business or agriculture)
VMBO，职前中等教育资质：包括必修公共部分（荷兰语、英语、社会研究I、体育和艺术I）、可选部分和特定部门的部分（从工程和技术、护理和福利事业、商业或农业中选择）。
• HAVO, senior general secondary education qualification: common component as above, specialised components and an optional component chosen from subject combinations: "science and technology", "science and health" and "economics and society". As well as terminal exams, pupils have to write a project which is expected to take 80 hours.

New Zealand:
新西兰：
The National Certificate of Educational Achievement (NCEA) is the main qualification at all levels of the senior secondary school. It allows a diverse range of students in an increasingly wide variety of courses in schools to have their achievements recognised and reported. Students completing Year 11 – the final year of compulsory education (age 15/16) obtain credits towards the NCEA. Approved courses are listed in the New Zealand Qualifications Framework (NZQF).
教育评鉴国家级证书（NCEA）是高中各级的主要证书。它允许学校中越来越多不同课程的不同学生的成绩得到认可和并获得报告。完成11年级，即义务教育最后一年（15/16岁）的学生能获得NCEA的学分。这些批准的课程通常列在新西兰资格认证框架（NZQF）中。
Students can achieve the NCEA from a wide range of studies within the school curriculum and beyond. Each subject is assessed externally and by internal assessment (externally moderated) using achievement standards developed by education, industry and national standards bodies. These standards are in place for general/academic (school curriculum) subjects and for vocational and technical subjects.
学生可以从学校课程内外的广泛学习中取得NCEA。每个科目都使用由教育、行业和国家标准机构制定的成绩标准进行外部评估和内部评估（外部协调）。这些标准适用于普通/学术（学校课程）科目以及职业和技术科目。
NCEA is intended to be a comprehensive record of what pupils achieve and a 'launching pad' for their ongoing learning and future careers. It is standards‐ased and complements external assessment with internal assessment in all conventional school subjects at three levels (Level 1 NCEA, Level 2 NCEA, and Level 3 NCEA, broadly equivalent to Year 11, Year 12 and Year 13).
NCEA旨在全面记录学生的成绩，并为他们持续的学习和未来的职业生涯提供一个“跳板”。它以标准为基础，与所有传统学校三个级别（1级NCEA、2级NCEA和3级NCEA，大致相当于11年级、12年级和13年级）的外部评估和内部评估相辅相成。
USA – Massachusetts:
美国马萨诸塞州：
No qualification is awarded at the end of compulsory education (age 16). However, one of the requirements for a high school graduation diploma – received on completion of Grade 12 (age 18) is that students pass the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS) Grade 10 "competency determination" tests in English, Maths, Science and technology.
义务教育结束时(16岁)不授予任何资格。然而，取得高中毕业文凭(在12年级，即18岁结束时得到)的要求之一是学生必须通过马萨诸塞州综合评估系统（MCAS）10年级的英语、数学、科学和技术“能力确定”测试。
18 year olds who complete high school and have passed the MCAS tests are awarded the high school graduation diploma. This is the minimum requirement for US higher education. However, university applicants are also judged on their high school record, courses taken and marks received, teachers' recommendations and marks in college/higher education admission tests.
完成高中学业并通过MCAS考试的18岁学生将获得高中毕业证书。这是美国高等教育的最低要求。然而，大学申请者也会根据他们的高中成绩、选修的课程和收到的分数、教师的推荐和大学/高等教育入学考试的分数来评判。
