This study aims to determine the comparison of enhancement students’ mathematical critical thinking skills between those who obtain Means - Ends Analysis (MEA) and Treffinger learning, as well as to find out the mathematical critical thinking skills of students who use Means - Ends Analysis (MEA) and Treffinger learning. The method used in this research is descriptive and quasi-experimental methods. The population in this study were students of class X MIPA SMA 3 Tasikmalaya. Two classes were taken randomly as samples, selected in class X MIPA 2 with 35 students as experimental class I using MEA and X MIPA 3 with 32 students as experimental class II using Treffinger learning. The instrument used was a test of students’ mathematical critical thinking skills. The data analysis technique used two mean difference tests, using a t-test with a significance level of 5%. The results of research and data analysis show that enhancement students’ mathematical critical thinking skills using MEA learning is better than those using Treffinger learning, critical thinking skills using learning are MEA included in both criteria and skills critical thinking using Treffinger learning is included in both criteria.
