は is optional at the end of this grammar point, as in 以上(は). Also, the ) parenthesis is missing from the definition ;).

Yep! It's just a suffix then, but I supppose that since there's already a page for 以上, it wouldn't hurt to add the suffix form.

Not 'over' as much, more like...'That's all'. You can also use it after giving a set of instructions, announcements, etc.

Hello! I read this sentence in my grammar book, but with the 'tonikaku' in the sentence, I can't seem to translate it into English. How would you translate this sentence: 試験を受けるいじょうは　とにかく合格できるように 頑張ろう Thanks!
