The purpose of this study was to identify Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) in mathematics education study program students in the Mathematical statistics course. HOTS in this study is based on the Revised Bloom Taxonomy which includes analyzing, evaluating and creating, especially in the dimensions of factual knowledge and conceptual knowledge. This research is a qualitative descriptive study. The research subjects were 35 students of the fourth semester mathematics education study program of Al Asyariah Mandar University. The data collection techniques such as essay test and each of which consisted of 3 items of dimension of procedural knowledge and conceptual knowledge, which was C4 (analyzing), C5 (evaluating), C6 (creative) level. HOTS data were obtained from test answers given to students and then analyzed descriptively. HOTS criteria include low, medium, and high. The results of the research on the factual knowledge dimension with a C4 level (analyzing) of 6.7 (medium), a C5 level (evaluating) of 4.6 (low), and a C6 level (creating) of 4.3 (low). Whereas in the conceptual knowledge dimension with a C4 level (analyzing) of 6.9 (medium), a C5 level (evaluating) of 4.7 (low), and a C6 level (creating) of 4.1 (low). In general, students’ HOTS are in low criteria.
