Title:	Associations between the performance in the entrance exam and academic performance at UFMG
Authors:	André Braz Golgher
Abstract:	Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG) implemented some recent changes in the entrance exam that may impact the selection process, in particular associations between performances in the entrance exams and posterior academic performance in the university. Differences between population groups in the entrance exams were much greater than for GPAs. Besides, differences in earlier semesters were larger than in later ones. Both results clearly indicate that minorities catch-up while in the university. For the UFMG's own first stage, Portuguese, mathematics and science exams had a larger predictive power, while the humanities and foreign language exams played smaller roles in predicting GPA outcomes. When the ENEM was used as a first stage of the selection process, all four exams (language, mathematics, humanities and science) showed positive and significant results. The second stage of UFMG's exam had a greater predictive power when ENEM was used as the first stage of the selection process.
