Learning achievement is very successful with the learning process. The learning process and achievement are positively correlated, meaning that the learning process done well and successfully will produce good and high learning achievements. Therefore it is necessary to know the factors that influence the learning process itself. The purpose of this study is to study and test the predictive power of the National Examination Score (NES) of SMP on the learning achievement of high school students in the city of Medan. The research location is in Medan City which is in 21 state high schools spread across several districts. The analysis used in this study uses regression analysis and A-B variant analysis. Before conducting a regression analysis, the normality test for the distribution of criteria is carried out, and the linearity test between the predictors and the criteria. The results of the study showed a significant relationship between the National Examination Score (NES) with student achievement, this result is evidenced by the coefficient F = 10,564 with p <0.01. The predicted value of the National Examination Score (NES ) has not been satisfactory for predicting student achievement, this proves with a lower correction coefficient for the National Examination Score predictor.
