10 Writing Topics to Train for Enem

The expert lists the topics that can be covered in the exam and explains how to enrich the text

Preparing for the ENEM (national high school exam) is a task that requires discipline, theoretical knowledge and, above all, skill development. In writing, for example, the student is required to have knowledge of the topics covered, but also the ability to construct an argumentative text using the appropriate repertoires.




It turns out that working on this skill isn’t always easy, especially without knowing what should be covered in the content. Therefore, Caroline Coltrin, pedagogical writing analyst at Aprova Total (study platform for the entrance exam), lists 10 possible writing topics to start studying for the test and explains how to enrich your text. Watch!

1. Artificial intelligence and devaluation of artistic productions in Brazil

This theme addresses the conflict between technology and art, reflecting on how artificial intelligence can impact creativity and the enjoyment of artistic works. It is suggested to delve into cultural works that deal with the topic, such as the “Black Mirror” series, and news on technological advances in artistic production.

two. Invisibility of children born in Brazilian women’s prisons

The invisibility of these children is a serious social problem that deserves attention. Addressing the lack of public policies aimed at this portion of the population and the context of social inequality can enrich the argument. The Statute of childhood and adolescence and works such as “Prisoneiras” by Drauzio Varella can be used as repertoire.

3. Ways to ensure safety food in Brazil

The issue of food security is intrinsically linked to social inequality and access to quality food. subjects Relying on official documents, such as the Organic Law on Food and Nutrition Security, and works such as “Quarto de Despejo”, by Carolina Maria de Jesus, can enrich the writing.

4. Religious teaching in schools and valorisation of diversity of beliefs

The debate on the secularity of the State and the importance of valorising religious diversity is fundamental. Using concepts such as those present in the work “Pedagogy of the Oppressed”, by Paulo Freire, and statistical data on religious intolerance can strengthen the arguments.

5. Women’s health in question in Brazil

Women’s health encompasses diverse issues, from mental health to obstetric violence. Legal documents, such as the Constitution, and works such as the documentary “O Renascimento do Parto” are examples of repertoires that can support reflections on this topic.

6. The impacts of digital influencers on the behavior of young Brazilians

The influence of social networks on young people is a current issue deserves to be discussed. The documentary “O Dilemma das Redes” and news reports on controversial cases involving influencers are valuable archive sources to support the arguments.



E-waste disposal is a pressing environmental issue and can be addressed during exam writing

7. Alternatives for e-waste disposal in Brazil

Improper disposal of e-waste is a pressing environmental problem. The documentary “Rifiuti Straordinari” and the statistical data on the production of electronic waste can be used as a repertoire to propose sustainable solutions.

8. School dropout and denial of the right to study

School dropout is a complex problem involving social, economic and cultural issues. Impactful phrases, such as those of the philosopher Mario Sergio Cortella, and works such as “Freedom Writers” can enrich the discussion on this topic.

9. Challenges in fighting eating disorders in Brazil

Eating disorders are a growing concern contemporary society. Using song lyrics, such as Beyoncé’s “Pretty Hurts,” and real-life case reports can add depth to your reflection on this topic.

10. The persistence of slavery-like labor today

Despite social progress, slave labor still persists in several sectors. The use of documents such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and works such as the soap opera “Todas as Flores” can enrich the analysis on this topic.

How to study for the Enem essay?

As Enem approaches, both beginners and those who already have a good foundation try to improve their writing skills, aiming for high grades. Therefore, Caroline Coltrin shares ideas for students to pay attention to the exam:

  1. Careful reading: Start by reading essays that have received a thousand votes. This will help you better understand what reviewers expect;
  2. Exercises with simulations: do simulations to improve time management and writing quality under pressure. One tip is to practice at least once a week;
  3. Learn more about the topics: widen yours general knowledge to enrich your arguments. Being well informed about current events and having a good cultural repertoire is essential. Read books and follow the news;
  4. Attention to the structure: A well-structured essay makes the difference. Practice writing so that your ideas are clearly expressed and easy to understand;
  5. Intervention proposals: develop innovative and applicable solutions to the proposed problems. Specify and detail your proposals for intervention, respecting human rights;
  6. Self evaluation: Even with feedback from teachers and peers, after each essay, do a critical self-evaluation to identify what can be improved.
