The objective of this study is to describe students’ analytical thinking profile based on reflective cognitive style in solving a mathematics problem, especially in two-dimension materials. This research is a qualitative descriptive study that elaborates the characteristics of analytical thinking including; pre-analytical, analytical-partial, semi-analytical, and complete analytics. Data collection is employed through task-based interviews and data validation is done by time triangulation. The participants of this study are two students at the eleventh grade of State Senior High School (SMAN) 1 Kedungwaru, Tulungagung. They are selected based on the results in answering matching familiar figures test. The results reveal that the subjects have partial analytical thinking characteristics in solving the problem.
