Talk:Bagrut certificate

"Torah"
That's incorrect. The Torah refers to the first part of the bible, which is five books out of 24. There isn't a bagrut exam on Torah, but rather the three parts of the bible.

But if I'll correct it to "Bible" it won't sound Jewish-specific.. The exam is mostly about the Jewish views of the bible. So, native speakers, what's the best wording for this?

Some Mistakes In The Article
A. Knowledge of the nation and state isn't a subject. Civics and minorities studies is a subject, and History is a subject (there is no separation between Jewish history and world history). Each is a different test with different grade (unlike language class, for example, where the grammar and composition are calculated to a single grade).

B. "For most subject matter exams, the student may choose the level of difficulty he or she would like to be tested under. " The only subjects in which you can choose your level of difficulty are English (3, 4 or 5 units), Math (3, 4 or 5 units) and the facultative subject (3 or 5 units). The rest of the subject are 2 units difficulty. There are some paths in which students who don't do well at school learn more basic difficulty (even 1 point), but it wouldn't grant them a Bagrut certificate.
