oglobo7 September 2026 at 07:30

The number of students who get more than 160 of the 180 questions right on the National High School Exam (Enem) has grown significantly since 2023. Between 2016 and 2022, only 577 candidates had reached that level, adding up all editions of that seven-year period. In the last three years, this number rose to nearly 4 thousand students.

This growth represents seven times the total of the previous seven years. The survey was conducted by Professor Frederico Torres, a statistician specializing in the Enem exam's microdata.

School backpacks should be "10% of the child's weight", have wide straps and must be "always adjusted to the spine"

In the run-up to the return to school, physiotherapist Mariana Santos warned about the importance of choosing appropriate school backpacks, recommending that the backpack's weight should not exceed 10% of the child's weight. The specialist argued that backpacks should have wide straps and always be adjusted to the spine, and warned about the precautions in organizing materials inside the bag. Santos also analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of backpacks with wheels, the so-called "trolleys", which, although they may seem practical, also present postural risks if used incorrectly.
