19 Common Mistakes in ENEM Writing and How to Avoid Them

Writing an ENEM essay can be a challenge, but knowing the most common mistakes can help you avoid pitfalls and improve your score. Here are the 19 most common mistakes and how to avoid them:

1. Deviation from topic: The writing proposal must be followed strictly. Carefully reading the statement and motivating texts helps to avoid this mistake.
2. Not enough text: The text must be between 7 and 30 lines. Less than that may characterize a departure from the theme.
3. Lack of argumentation: It is essential to present solid and well-developed arguments to support the thesis.
4. Use of clichés: Stock phrases and clichés impoverish the text and demonstrate a lack of originality.
5. Spelling errors: Proofread the text carefully to avoid spelling errors, which could compromise the grade.
6. Concordance errors: Verb and noun agreement must be correct. Proofreading helps to identify possible errors.
7. Improper use of commas: The correct use of commas is essential for the coherence and cohesion of the text.
8. Lack of cohesion: It is important that ideas are connected in a logical and coherent way.
9. Use of colloquial language: The essay should be written in formal language.
10. Hate speech: Any form of hate speech or prejudice will result in a zero score.
11. Lack of intervention proposal: The intervention proposal is one of the five criteria for correcting the ENEM essay.
12. Intervention proposal without detail: The intervention proposal must be detailed, presenting who will do it, how it will do it and how it will solve the problem.
13. Disrespect for human rights: Any proposal or argument that violates human rights will result in a zero score.
14. Copy the motivational texts: The motivational texts are for inspiration and should not be copied in full.
15. Text in poetic prose or in the form of a poem: The composition must be written in prose and not in the form of a poem.
16. Use of unknown words: The use of unknown or very elaborate words can confuse the reader and impair the understanding of the text.
17. Weak introduction and conclusion: The introduction must clearly present the thesis and the conclusion must resume the thesis and present the intervention proposal.
18. Present unrealistic solutions: The proposed solutions must be realistic and feasible.
19. Use of first person: The text must be written in third person, avoiding personal opinions.

Remember, practice makes perfect. Keep practicing and avoid these common mistakes to improve your ENEM writing skills.
