This study aims to determine the effect of inquiry learning methods on generic science skills that based on the level of creativity of Senior High School students. The study uses a quantitative approach, a quasi-experimental method, and the design of two groups pretest and posttest. The population target is all students of grade ten at Senior High School, while the sample is randomly selected by 2 classes, grade ten-1 as an experimental group (30 students) and grade ten-2 as a control group (30 students). Generic science skills data collected by multiple choice tests, while data collection on students’ creativity levels uses essay tests. Both tests were developed by researchers with high levels of validity and reliability, difficulty indexes and different power included in the medium category. The results of data analysis using SPSS shows that students who have a high level of creativity will have a significant effect on the increasing students’ generic science skills. Inference from these results, teachers are expected to be able to distinguish students who have high levels of creativity when applying inquiry learning methods.
