Abstract

Critical thinking skills are one of the most important life skills in the 21st century, because critical thinking skills can improve intelligence in life skills. Critical Profiles of critical thinking skills and their relationship to students' metacognitive skills are obtained from in-depth problem-based interviews. The results show that if metacognitive skills are good, critical thinking skills are also good. Similarly, if the metacognitive skills are not good, critical thinking skills are also not good.thinking can improve verbal and analytic skills, critical thinking enhances creativity, critical thinking is important for self-reflection. Metacognition is related to thinking of someone about their own thinking and their ability to use certain learning strategies appropriately. Metacognition involves consciously strategies to control and enhance learning. Critical thinking skills help students to solve mathematical problems. So that the profile of critical thinking skills and their relationship to metacognitive skills in junior high school students in solving the problems of critical thinking in mathematical problems, is very useful to be studied by anyone who has an interest in education. The research subjects were eighth grade junior high school students.
