Romanian Baccalaureate & UCAS

Hi! I’m in my last year of high school in Romania and I’m planning on writing my UCAS application soon, but I can’t figure out how to write my Baccalaureate subjects on my application.
The Baccalaureate subjects are as follows:
- Romanian Literature, History, and Psychology - written exams, will be taken in June 2026, very straightforward to write about in my application, they are the only number-graded parts (0-10) and they make up the general grade.
- Romanian Literature Oral - doesn’t have a grade (it is marked with stuff like Experienced User etc.), I’m already lost.
- English & Digital Competences - you can either take these two along with the rest of the parts or take IELTS/Cambridge (for English) & ECDL (for D.C.) earlier and use them as equivalents. This is the part I’m most confused about, because I had already taken both and technically passed, but I can’t actually claim that I “passed” the Baccalaureate for these subjects until I get my diploma, right? I’m guessing I have to mark them as pending with everything else in the Baccalaureate section? I’m obviously writing IELTS in its designated spot on the application but I’m not sure if I also have to write it again in that section along with the rest of the subjects or not.
Also, do I write the subjects in Romanian or English???

Actually, as I was writing this I thought that maybe I could, for example, write “English” and mark it as pending, while my teacher will write “IELTS” as the predicted grade, since that’s how it appears on the diploma?
