AbstractMany factors influence and cause the learners feel difficult in resolving mathematical problems. One of these factors is the mistake of students when solving problems in mathematics. The research aims to analyze students' mistakes in working with mathematical diagnostic tests. The method used in this study is a quantitative descriptive where the data was taken through a diagnostic test result of 251 students. The instrument used in this research is a valid and reliable two-tier multiple-choice test instrument. The researcher later corrected student test results. Once fixed, the answer was later analyzed using Newman's theory based on four indicators, i.e. (1) Error understanding, (2) error transforming, (3) Error processing skills, and (4) Error writing answers and then described. Results in research shows the mistakes that students do in resolving mathematical problems in calculus material are largely due to errors in understanding, errors of transformation, and error in process skills. Based on the results of the study, researchers concluded that students have done mistakes in resolving mathematical problems in calculus material largely due to errors in understanding, error transformation, and error in process skills. To overcome the mistakes that students do when solving mathematical problems can be used by several scaffolding solutions, using a creative and innovative learning model a nd tell students what they are doing and instantly fix them.KeywordsError Analysis, Mathematics, Diagnostic Tests
