Upper secondary school leaving examination
Upper secondary school leaving examination
http://www.ciriusonline.dk/default.aspx?id=3763
The traditional general upper secondary programmes comprise the 3-year gymnasium programme, the 2-year hf-kursus programme and the 2-year adult upper secondary level programme (studenterkursus). These programmes are academically oriented and are completed with the upper secondary school leaving examination (Studentereksamen) or the higher preparatory examination (Højere Forberedelseseksamen = hf). Both examinations qualify students for general access to higher education.
That is the official title.
It is roughly equivalent to A levels. Danish students spend three years at the gymnasium and I think they take more subjects than UK sixth formers.
The system has been reformed recently, but this is the current description.

In the UK, they probably equate to A-levels (pre-university level school exams)

: while your observation may be correct, I don't think it would be a correct translation of the danish term.

maybe you could write chemistry in between brackets, however I dont know if it needs to be specified.

: In my view, 'GCE' is a particular examination board (as opposed to, say 'SCE') and thus not the correct translation of the danish term.

: I think this might be the correct term in US English (but not UK where 'high school' is not a commonly used term).
