Resumo: | The Brazilian High School Exam (Enem) results are used to enter higher education and obtain scholarships and study financing. The Enem comprises an essay and four 45-item tests that measure educational skills in different areas of knowledge. Therefore, this work aims to verify the possibility of reducing the number of items in Enem through a Computerized Adaptive Testing (CAT). We used tests from the 2009 to 2019 editions of Enem. The items have been calibrated and positioned on four scales (one for each area). we simulated a CAT, which ended when the error was less than or equal to 0.30, or 45 items were applied. On average, the application ranged from 12.0 (Languages and Codes; LC) to 29.2 (Mathematics; MT) items. Results point to the potential of reducing the size of Enem to 20 items for a proportion that varies from 39.8% (MT) to 94.8% (LC). |

El Enem se compone de un ensayo y cuatro pruebas de 45 ítems que miden competencias educativas en diferentes áreas del conocimiento. Por lo tanto, este trabajo tiene como objetivo verificar la posibilidad de reducir la cantidad de ítems en Enem a través de una prueba adaptativa computarizada (CAT). Utilizamos pruebas de las ediciones 2009 a 2019 de Enem. Los ítems han sido calibrados y posicionados en cuatro escalas (una para cada área). Simulamos una CAT, que terminaba cuando el error era menor o igual a 0,30, o se aplicaban 45 ítems. En promedio, la aplicación osciló entre 12,0 (Linguajes y códigos; LC) y 29,2 (Matemáticas; MT) ítems. Los resultados apuntan al potencial de reducir el tamaño de Enem a 20 ítems para una proporción que varía de 39,8% (MT) a 94,8% (LC).Os resultados do Enem são usados para ingressar no ensino superior e obter bolsas e financiamento de estudos.
