In addition to the writing test, candidates enrolled in Enem will take questions on languages and codes and human sciences this afternoon. The test started at 1:30 pm and the end time is scheduled for 7 pm (Brasília time).
The writing test requires the production of a prose text, of an essay-argumentative type, with up to 30 lines based on the proposed problem situation, the motivating texts and the knowledge built throughout your training.
When preparing the essay, participants must pay attention to the five skills that will be required in the text:
- Demonstrate command of the formal written form of the Portuguese language
- Understand the writing proposal and apply concepts from various areas of knowledge to develop the theme within the structural limits of the dissertation-argumentative text in prose
- Select, relate, organize and interpret information, facts, opinions and arguments in defense of a point of view
- Demonstrate knowledge of the linguistic mechanisms necessary to construct an argument
- Prepare an intervention proposal for the problem addressed, respecting human rights
Among the criteria that give a zero score are avoidance of the topic, text with up to seven lines, a section deliberately disconnected from the topic, disobedience to the essay-argumentative structure and disrespect for the seriousness of the exam.
