Creativity is an ability that must be developed from an early age. The ability to think creatively is also one of the higher-order thinking skills needed in the 21st century. This study aimed to analyze the level of mathematical creative thinking skills of students’ mathematical logical intelligence. Indicators on the ability to think creatively include fluency, flexibility, and novelty. The method used in this research was descriptive qualitative. Data filling methods were tests, interviews, and documentation. The results of this study revealed the profile of students’ level of mathematical critical thinking and logical mathematical intelligence, and showed that students who have high mathematical logical intelligence are at level 3 creative thinking (creative). Students who have mathematical moderate logical intelligence are at level 2 creative thinking (creative enough) and students who have low mathematical logical intelligence are at creative thinking level 0 (not creative). Therefore, based on the results of this study, we know that students who have high, medium, and low mathematical logical intelligence can solve math problems based on their creative thinking abilities.
