Get ready for your exam with these 10 valuable tips for the 10 days leading up to the big day. Boost your confidence, reduce stress, and improve your chances of success!
According to experts, the ideal is to take advantage of the few days left before the exams start to rest and study. This is because it is also essential to dedicate time to relaxation. “A 20 to 30-minute break in the middle of studying, for a snack and to rest, is usually beneficial to protect young people from possible burnout,”
Check out ten essential tips for the ten days leading up to the Enem:
1) Organize your studies
In the final stretch, the focus is on the most comprehensive content and possible essay topics. Observe the material studied in class, reviewing it in the same order as in the tests.
2) Prioritize the content that raises the most questions for you
Students should focus on the areas of knowledge they find most difficult, dedicating more time to them. To do this, one suggestion is to seek out a larger amount of support material and make an effort to assimilate this content.
3) Reading is essential
In the last few days before the Enem, prioritize reading different types of text, such as chronicles, opinion pieces, newspaper and magazine articles. In addition to being well informed about possible essay topics, you will expand your vocabulary.
4) Pay attention to the Enem essay
Writing requires special attention. In the last few days, write as much as possible, reviewing the elements that make up the essay structure requested by Enem.
5) Slowing down is the watchword
Plan your study time and do not exceed the allotted time. It is important to maintain moments with family, friends and, above all, moments of rest.
6) Pay attention to your health
To improve the assimilation of knowledge, it is important to think about your well-being, taking care of your diet, taking breaks to rest and practicing physical activities. Try to relax, especially on the eve of the exams.
7) Sleeping well is as important as studying
Your sleep routine affects all your activities. It is essential to maintain the recommended daily sleep of 8 hours, thus recovering the rest you need for the Enem.
8) Organize and separate documents in advance
To avoid any unexpected issues, check all the required documents in the last few days. You must bring an original photo ID, such as a National Identity Card (CIN), digital CNH, e-Título or a digital ID card, via the Gov.br app, a proof card and a black pen made of transparent material (note: this is the only one accepted).
9) Pay attention to the time
The gates open at 12:00 p.m. and close at 1:00 p.m. (Brasília time). It’s best to keep an eye on the clock and leave home early. After all, no one wants to be seen in a meme about being late for the Enem, right? “Traffic in some test areas can be very heavy, so it’s best to arrive early to avoid any unforeseen events,” recommends Patrick.
10) Check your data on the day of the test
Before you start answering the Enem questions, check that your personal information is correct in the question booklet, on the answer sheet, on the essay sheet and on the attendance list. Andreia also gives another warning. “Before you start answering the test, it is a good idea to check that there are no missing pages in your question booklet”. If this happens, notify the room supervisor immediately.
