In Acre, first candidates leave test sites and evaluate Enem 2026 essay theme: 'Satisfactory'

The first candidates began leaving the exam sites for the National High School Examination (Enem) 2026 in Rio Branco from 1:30 pm this Sunday (8).

After two hours of application, participants were able to leave without taking the question book. Upon leaving, some took the opportunity to share their first impressions of the exam and assess the level of difficulty of the questions.

Among them was Junior da Silva Dantas, 43 years old. He is completing his mathematics course at the Federal University of Acre (Ufac), but is already planning to start a second degree. This time, the objective is to enroll in the geography course.

The candidate evaluated the test positively and highlighted the theme of the essay, which was "The valorization of the Unified Health System (SUS) as a universal right".

"The essay was a very good topic, about the public healthcare system that we are lucky to have, especially for those of us who are less able to have private healthcare. It was satisfactory. I want to study geography, and I'm already studying mathematics. I found the questions very objective", he assessed.

Self-employed Alan Paulo, 33 years old, has a degree in people management and took the Enem for the fifth time. He said that the test was objective and highlighted the importance of the essay topic.

"But I'm always looking for knowledge, to compete because there are many students who come to stand out, I came there looking for a new degree. I want to do medicine," he said.

Thallysson Bruno, 16 years old, took the Enem as a trainer and said that, although it is not yet "valid", he said that he prepared himself and that it was calm, although there was nervousness.

"The topic of the essay was important, it was great, it gave me a lot to reflect on about the SUS, I saw that Acre is the second state that uses the SUS the most and this has a huge impact because there is a lot of inequality, but we believe it can improve the system. I intend to study law, help people who are unfairly treated", he said.
