%X this paper presents the results of research on socioeconomic inequality in bogota's secondary education (year 2009). the results show that socioeconomic student level is significantly associated both to educational access (public or private), and to educational quality (ranking in state test - icfes). this demonstrates that in bogot¨¢ not only does each social class study separately, but also that rich people have access to a better education than poor people. this situation of social segregation (apartheid) aggravates some of the already pervasive colombian problems: lack social mobility, economic inequality and illegitimacy of the political system.
