<p>I'm a current senior from Mexico and I'm starting to get ready for this year's application season. I was wondering, though, if I have to submit report cards strictly from "High School" or strictly from 9th-12th grade? Because here in Mexico high school runs from 10th grade to 12th grade while 9th grade is still middle school. I went to a different institution in 9th grade so getting a report card would be a little complicated, and I'm not sure my grades were that good back then. </p>
<p>So, should I send my 9th grade report card even if it's not high school?</p>
<p>Yes you do. If you had to take an exam to get into high school or if there was a school-leaving certificate/diploma/national examination at the end of 9th grade you’d need to submit the results, too. Although those results don’t count very much, they’re needed.</p>
<p>Yeah, that’s what I did. My counselor (or actually principal, we didn’t have counselors at my school) had my grades from middle school (aka secundaria), so he sent those and mentioned I had done 9th grade at another school. He probably mentioned that the Mexican system is 6-3-3 too, but I don’t know for sure.</p>
<p>Great, thanks for the answers. I’m pretty sure my current high school has my middle school grades, so I’ll ask my counselor to look for them. Also, in my previous school (went there 1st-9th grade) they made us take tests from The College Board on 6th and 9th grade, would those be useful? I don’t remember the name of the tests, but they were a combination of Spanish and English. I also took the "Prueba de Aptitud Acad</p>
