yo cfire
i wanna apply to an international project/organisation. for that i need to write an application form in english. actually i can handle the basic things, but i never made any english data sheet & covering letter so i dont know how to express things in formal words(so that it sounds like a real application form ya know....):

-i found several translations of "abitur" like A-Level('s), higher school certificate, or just abitur like in german... what to use? and how to say that i will (probably) get it next year? (like 'examination in june 2010'?)

• Dates (from – to) September 2003 onwards
can i use 'onwards' in this way? (still related to my school time...)

-whats the correct name of the informatics/computer science/... subject in english?

-how to end the cover? i just know the typical form "Best regards,"; is there a more fitting phrase to use?

pls halp D:

e: stop checking my profile without giving help :(

Best ending is 'I will make it worth your while'

A-Levels is the correct translation for the ABI. Most (bigger) international corperates know about the meaning.

You should say you are predicted to get such and such grades in abitur, which is the equivalent to A-Levels.
