aptitude tests for the over 25s

This answer would perhaps sound better when spoken, due to the slight awkwardness of "25s", but I have drawn from the use of phrases such as "the over thirties".

"...for the over twenty-fives"

mature student (university) entry tests

And my answer is similar to the previous one.

And here's the same explanation!

Mature students, by definition, in the UK are over as little as 21! The implication is that the prospective student has decided to start studying again after a break from studying (but not just a gap year). Don't think it's necessary to specify the age, since it's a question of mature students having a different entry route into higher education.

"The definition of a mature student

You will be defined as a mature student if you are aged 21 or over at the start of your course (20 or over in Scotland). Mature students decide to study for many different reasons, including improved job prospects, making a fresh start or purely for interest in their subject. " http://www.ucas.com/students/maturestudents/whatisamaturestu...


In particular I remember that you wanted the translation to be understandable for English readers.

The procedure being referred to is distinct from the procedure followed by someone coming straight out of high school, and a mature student often has to follow a different application procedure / fulfil different requirements to qualify to apply in the UK too.

neutral Wendy Cummings : I think strictly speaking, "mature student" means any student over the normal age of entry, which in the UK is 19// http://www.ucas.com/students/maturestudents/whatisamaturestu... "You will be defined as a mature student if you are aged 21 or over"
