Human Anatomy (HA) is a basic discipline in health and biological sciences indispensable to all academic students. Most of them consider its content very difficult. The teaching of HA needs to be rethought in the context of the current policy, which provides increasing access to higher education. It needs to be compatible with the institutions’ ability to meet their obligations and therefore, provide the student with a qualityeducation aimed at the formation of critical thinking and a creative profile to deal with different situations of everyday life. One must understand the potential factors that lead to high failure rates in this discipline. Therefore, the present study aimed to correlate the results of the entrance examination/ENEM with study habits and professional goals of the students’ academic performance in Physical Education, Biological Sciences and Nutrition courses of the IF Sudeste MG University. A total of 129 students were interviewed. The entrance examination or ENEM score was higher among those who passed in HA; there was no quantitative difference between the groups either in study hours or in the choice of course made by the student.
