  Secondary education in Denmark - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Higher Preparatory Examination (HF) was introduced in 1967 in a political climate that was characterised by a desire to extend educational possibilities to new groups in society.
It was not until 1972 that the HHX was given the status of a university entrance examination in connection with a revision of the content and the introduction of more rigorous admission requirements.
On the same occasion, the HTX-examination was granted the status of a university entrance examination, and the graduates were now in principle placed on an equal footing with those of the Gymnasium, the HF and the HHX programmes as far as access to higher education was concerned.
