Each individual has different aptitudes and personalities. Schools have a very important rules to map students’ interests according to students’ talents and interests. This is very important because proper placement of interest can support students’ academic ability. This study aims to create a standard measurement that can be used for mapping and tracking students’ talent in high school becomes easier and measurable. There are 5 aspects related to aptitudes in this research such as visual reasoning test, numerical reasoning test, verbal analysis test, spatial recognition test and vocabulary test. The Rasch model was used to analyze the difficulty level of the item, and from the results of the study showed that the difficulty level of the item was in the normal distribution at the interval -3.57 to 4.5. By using the Google Form tool, students’ aptitudes tests are developed and presented in varied form and can provide test result information automatically. The use of Google Form has several advantages, such as (1) the test does not have to be done simultaneously at the same time and place, (2) the item can be made more interesting because it can use images and audio visual facilities and (3) there is no need to duplicate the test paper since it is computer-based tests to minimize test administration.
