<p>Hi. I am currently 15 years old. I live in the Puerto Rico (Caribbean). I study in one of the top private school (Robinson School) and very expensive school (over 1k per month). I will be moving to Texas (Katy, Houston) when I finish my school year this May (while US school finish in June). I will be going to a public school (Seven Lakes High School). Not sure what grade I am going to be since the school system is different from my current school. I am currently in 9th grade but I heard that if someone moves from the US to Puerto Rico, they are lowered by one grade. Maybe I’ll skip a grade in the US. I will like to know what will I need to do to enter the school (by my current school grades, a entrance test, etc…). I heard that in the US the 10th grade test score counts for college while in here it is 9th grade.</p>

<p>But the real purpose I register here was to help me choose what I want to study. This is a question that most high school students struggle or ask. I will like to know if there is a website or someone that can help me.</p>

<p>How old are you? People born between Sept 1992 and Aug 1993 will generally be in USA 10th grade next year. </p>

<p>If you’re going to be in 10th grade next year you don’t need
to start worrying about focus study areas yet. Just try out a lot of things at your new school and keep practicing English.</p>

<p>I am 15 years old (born in December 16, 1992). What I don’t need?</p>

<p>I know 3 languages (Spanish, Chinese, English) so it is hard to practice each language.</p>

<p>I just want to start getting certification for my application and to start in a good paying job.</p>

<p>Sounds like HS in mainland USA will be a great opportunity for you. I wish I could study abroad sometime. ^_^</p>

<p>While you’re here just do your best in academics to maintain a high GPA, do extracurricular activities that you like and try to explore lots of areas.</p>
