How to correctly interpret the ENEM essay proposal

The correct interpretation of the essay proposal for the National High School Examination (ENEM) is a crucial step for a good performance in this component of the test. The topic of the essay is always a topical and relevant issue, which requires critical reflection from the candidate. Understanding the proposal correctly is essential to develop a solid and pertinent argument.

1. Careful reading of the proposal

The first tip is to read the essay proposal very carefully. It usually consists of a theme and some supporting texts. The topic is the central issue that should be discussed in the essay. The supporting texts are materials that bring information and points of view on the subject, which can help to support the argument.

It is important to read the entire proposal, without rushing, to understand well what is being asked. In addition, it is worth doing a second reading, this time more analytical, highlighting the keywords and main points of the supporting texts.

2. Understanding the theme

Understanding the topic of the essay is essential. Often, the topic is presented as a question or a statement that must be discussed. It is important to understand exactly what this question or statement means.

For this, it is useful to break the theme into smaller parts and analyze each one. In addition, it is important to relate the topic to your prior knowledge on the subject and to the information presented in the supporting texts.

3. Analysis of supporting texts

Supporting texts are a valuable resource for writing. They bring information and different points of view on the subject, which can be used to support the argument. However, it is important not to limit yourself to reproducing the ideas presented in these texts. The aim is to use them as a starting point to develop your own reflection on the topic.

It is therefore important to analyze supporting texts carefully, identifying the main ideas and arguments presented. In addition, it is useful to critically reflect on these ideas, assessing their validity and relevance to the topic of the essay.

In summary, the correct interpretation of the ENEM writing proposal requires a careful and analytical reading of the theme and the supporting texts, as well as a critical reflection on the ideas presented. With these steps, the candidate will be well prepared to develop a solid and pertinent argument that meets the requirements of the test.
