This study aims to describe mathematical reasoning abilities in terms of the gender of grade VIIIA students at MTs Negeri 3 Banjarnegara. The study population was students of MTs Negeri 3 Banjarnegara by taking samples of class VIII A. Sampling using a cluster random sampling technique. Data obtained using tests, interviews, and documentation. The data were analyzed and described quantitatively. The results showed that: 1. The percentage of male students’ ability to give assumptions based on the formed pattern was 54.19%, while female students were 64.71%; 2. Students’ skills to use a number sequence pattern to draw conclusions about male students were 66.67%, while female students were 76.47%; 3. Male students tend to make guesses by briefly writing down the pattern, while female students describe their tribes first; 4. Male students tend to misunderstand questions so that they are wrong in concluding, and 5. female students draw conclusions based on the results of describing their ethnic groups.
