Resiliencia metas educativas contexto social rendimiento académico preparatoria. The academic achievement in high school students of Mexico, according to national and international evaluations has been insufficient. In spite of this situation, is possible to find excellent students, even in the context of sharing negative contextual and physical conditions. There are few investigations that describe the variables associated to resilient students. The alumni that are beyond the risks are called resilient (Rutter, 2007). The aim of this research was to explore and identify the internal variables: goals and resilience, and the external variables: risky neighborhood and risky friends that predicted the scholar achievement of high school students. To measure those variables, was used a compilation of scales validated in the region. The data were analyzed using structural equation modeling, and show that resilience predicted indirectly the scholar achievement trough the academic goals. The results could be used in programs to improve the academic achievement of this group of students. El rendimiento académico en los estudiantes de preparatoria de México, según las evaluaciones nacionales e internacionales, ha sido insuficiente. No obstante, es posible encontrar a estudiantes exitosos a pesar de las condiciones negativas de infraestructura física y contextuales compartidas. Son pocas las investigaciones que describen las variables asociadas a estos estudiantes, los cuales, al superar los riesgos son llamados resilientes (Rutter, 2007). El objetivo de la investigación fue explorar e identificar las variables internas: metas y resiliencia, y las externas: vecindario de riesgo y amigos de riesgo, en su predicción del rendimiento académico de estudiantes de preparatoria. Para la medición se utilizaron escalas validadas en la región. Los datos se analizaron utilizando ecuaciones estructurales. Los resultados indican que la resiliencia predice de manera indirecta al rendimiento académico, a través de las metas académicas. Los resultados pueden ser utilizados en programas dirigidos a mejorar el rendimiento académico de este grupo de estudiantes.
