HERNANDEZ FERNANDEZ, Jimena. Heterogeneity of admission and selection processes at upper secondary. Sinéctica [online]. 2016, n.47. ISSN 2007-7033.
In Mexico, selection exams have been introduced in some States where the demand of upper secondary is high or where schools supply is insufficient. Mexico City and Estado de Mexico are well known cases of States where the processes and mechanisms of selection have been unified. However, little is known about how other States are selecting their students. This article explores the processes and mechanisms of admission and selection at upper secondary by State level; for this reason, it has an important contribution to the gap in the literature. Through a documental review it is identified the processes and mechanisms for admission and selection used at State level, the agents involved in the definition of such procedures as well as the differences between States. The article suggests that the admission and selection processes used in upper secondary are heterogeneous which translates into significant challenges for the Mexican educational system within the compulsory nature of the educational level.
