Overview

  • Education Minister Leonardo Barchini said on Wednesday, Nov. 4, that more than 5.05 million confirmed candidates will face a secure Enem and that the essay topic is produced by an independent Inep commission to reflect current social issues.
  • Inep says it overhauled the item pre‑testing process and confidentiality rules after last year’s circulation of similar questions, and the Polícia Federal was called to investigate the 2025 matter without evidence that results were altered.
  • States and municipal education secretariats are running final aulões, review circuits and transport plans to help students reach test sites, with programs in Piauí, Amapá, Bahia and Paraíba cited as examples.
  • The exam will be applied on two Sundays, 8 and 15 November, with gates opening at 12:00 and closing at 13:00 Brasília time and testing starting at 13:30, while Enem 2026 also serves as a first‑step Saeb measure to assess upper secondary education.
  • The MEC is promoting the free MEC Enem app—offering simulados, thousands of exercises and AI‑based essay feedback—to expand preparation access, and officials are monitoring participation targets for public‑school concluintes and broader effects on Sisu, ProUni and Fies admissions.
