This study aims to determine the reasoning abilities and learning outcomes in petroleum material and obtain an overview of students’ responses through the problem-based learning (PBL) model. This research was a quasi-experimental method conducted in a private Islamic Senior High School. The subjects of the study were two groups of students from different classes. Data were collected by written using questions about pre-test, post-test and questionnaire responses of students’ pre-test, post-test, and N-gain the control class obtained values 40.5, 68 and 44.26 respectively, while the experimental class scored 44.67, 80.33 and 63.19 apiece. The reasoning ability of students showed a difference. The students from the experiment class scored higher than the students from the control group. Also, vast majority of students respond positively to PBL learning models.
