With the first six years at primaries level.  In three years of the second level students than pass exams can chose to go to a university. There are only six university, Costa Rica has a large range of subjects like law, medicine, sociology, and journalism.




To go to school in Costa Rica would be different because we have to wear uniforms and learn Spanish.
