Brazil Enem exam weather makeup session December, Digi Mart USA News (Brasília, Brazil): Brazil’s Minister of Education, Leonardo Barchini, said on Sunday, November 8, that students who were unable to take the exam because of weather conditions will be given a second opportunity in December. He made the remarks during a visit by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva to the monitoring room of the National Institute for Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira (Inep) in Brasília.
Technicians from Inep, the federal agency under the Ministry of Education responsible for administering the Enem, were tracking logistics across Brazil. “All weather-related issues are being monitored by Inep.
For those who cannot arrive because of weather conditions, we have a second application in the month of December,” the minister said.
According to the minister and the official notice governing the 2026 Enem, these students will sit the exam on December 15 and 16, when the Enem PPL is held. The PPL format is intended for Persons Deprived of Liberty and young people under socio-educational measures involving deprivation of liberty.
The 2026 Enem is taking place from November 8 to 15 across the country. This year, 5,055,818 people had their registrations confirmed and are eligible to take the exam, the highest figure since 2020, when nearly 5.8 million people had registered.
The exam did not take place that year because of the Covid-19 pandemic, and registrations fell sharply the following year.
The exam consists of 90 objective questions, divided between Languages and Human Sciences, plus an essay. On Sunday, November 16, another 90 questions covering Mathematics and Natural Sciences will be administered.
