Abstract
This study aims to determine the extent of mathematical communication abilities in terms of Students' Initial Mathematics Ability and to examine students' mistakes in solving mathematical communication ability test questions. The subjects of this study were 24 students of SMA Al Ma’shum. The method used in this research is descriptive method with a qualitative approach. The research instrument is a test instrument consisting of 5 questions describing mathematical communication skills. The results of data analysis show that students' mathematical communication skills are still relatively low. The students' mathematical communication ability corresponds to their initial level of mathematical ability, that is, students in the upper group have 69.44% mathematical communication ability, 64.77% in the middle group and 52.77% in the lower group. The mistake that many students make in solving mathematical communication problems is an error in the indicator when writing a picture problem into a mathematical idea.
