The results of the study prove that students still experience problems in solving problems on Higher Order Thinking Skill questions at 3 levels of Bloom's taxonomy, namely: analyzing (C4); evaluate (C5); and create (C6). This is evidenced by the results of the students' higher order thinking skills which show that no one gets the very good category, most of the students only get the sufficient category.
