Guess who got into university? - Gloria Maria Lambertucci

This book deals with the saga of underprivileged students who, through the Lula government's public policy for higher education, ProUni-Programa Universidade para Todos, enter a private university. Despite all the negative predictions about their academic career, they build strategies to overcome their difficulties and emphasise their strengths. Through their discoveries of this new world and their actions, they not only manage to stay at university, but also achieve positive academic results, setting them apart from the rest. Here I show some fragments of their family and school histories, essential components for understanding what mobilised them and kept them insisting on their dreams, despite all the adversities before and after they entered university. Dialoguing with Bernard Charlot, I discovered a path that allowed me to demystify the prejudiced readings of these subjects, to whom they attribute responsibility for their problems and few opportunities, which are experienced mainly by young people.
