Analytical thinking skills are important for students to learning of respiratory system material. This does not only require students to understand the concepts and principles, but also the applications in life. The aim of this research is to determine the analytical thinking of student in working on the question concept of the respiratory system. It used the descriptive method with 74 students as subjects. The instruments used test that based on the Facione's analytical thinking skill indicator. The data process techniques used: score on each question, change the score and grouping the subject levels obtained by value and conclusion. The results show that percentages of students with the category of analytical thinking skills were: the very poor 49%, poor 42%, fair 9%, and there were not obtain students with a good or excellent score of analytical thinking skill. Achievement of students' analytical thinking skills indicators: Interpretation 34.97%, Identifying 41.89%, Generating Hypothesis 11.15%, and Inference 18.24%. In conclusion that the analytical thinking skill of students relatively low. Based on this research suggested needs teacher effort by practice the students to answer analytical questions or using the right strategies that can foster students' analytical thinking skills.
