The number of participants with the maximum score in the composition of the National High School Examination (Enem) increased for the first time since 2011. In 2018, a total of 55 students obtained a thousand marks. At the other end, the number of newsrooms rated zero fell to less than half of 2017.
In 2011, of the approximately 4 million Enem participants, 3.7 thousand achieved the maximum grade. Since then, despite the increase in the number of candidates, the number of essays with a thousand notes has only dropped. In 2017, only 53 of the more than 4.7 million participants achieved the maximum score.

In 2018, according to data released today (18) by the National Institute of Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira (Inep), of the total of 4.1 million essays corrected, 55 obtained the maximum performance in all aspects evaluated. The theme of last year's edition was Manipulation of User Behavior by Controlling Data on the Internet.
The number of students who completed the essay dropped from 309,157 in 2017, which represented 6.54% of the total number of candidates, to 112,559 in 2018, 2.73% of the total number of participants.
In 2017, when the topic of the essay was Challenges for the educational training of the deaf in Brazil, the biggest reason for zeroing the essay was to avoid the topic. Last year, more students left the test blank.
Despite the positive results in maximum and minimum grades, the average performance in the newsroom dropped in 2018 compared to 2017. The average score of students on this test in 2017 was 558 points. In 2018, it was 522.8 points.
The results of the Enem were released this Friday. Students can access the Participant's Page and find out how much they obtained in language, human sciences, natural sciences, mathematics and writing tests.
On average, compared to 2017 results, students performed better in 2018 on language, math, and humanities tests. The average proficiency increased from 510.2 points to 526.9 points in language; from 519.3 to 569.2 in human sciences; and from 518.5 to 535.5 in mathematics. In natural sciences the average performance dropped from 510.6 to 493.8.
On March 18, Inep will publish the newsroom mirror, that is, details of the correction of this test. This is done after the selection processes for federal programs. The correction has only a pedagogical function and it is not possible to lodge an appeal. With information from Agência Brasil.
