This study used a qualitative descriptive by giving mathematical habits of mind questionnaire to 68 12th grade students in one of the senior high schools in Tasikmalaya. The results showed that the mathematical habits of mind of students in the high group were 16 people, there were 40 people in the average group and 11 people in the low group.
