Swiss Examination

My comment:

I would (intentionally) simplifly the translation. Eidgenössisch really means something to the German speaking area (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) but when it comes to English the picture (to them) becomes more general, broader (i.e. being precise will be LESS understood - which is my point).
