In the 21st century, students are expected to have abilities that are considered important to face challenges.One of the goals of the education system is to educate students to think critically. The purpose of this research is to determine the extent to which researchers analyze students' critical thinking abilities, especially in solving geometry problems.The research method used is literature study. Based on 12 articles relevant to critical thinking, problem solving in geometry,After obtaining articles related to the question, the researcher then analyzed and concluded the results. This article's meta data is in the form of a tableThe articles studied are articles that have been indexed by SINTA. The results of research on 5 articles stated that students' critical thinking in solving problems experienced difficulties and errors in solving them, especially in analysis and evaluation indicators, where the problem was that students were unable to determine the right strategy in solving questions. 7 Other articlesstated that students were able to solve the questions well. This is because students illustrate, examine and interpret the questions they are working on first so they can evaluate the questions well. Critical thinking research still needs to be carried out, especially on geometry material because from several previous findings researchers only focused on critical thinking skills in solving problems but did not examine in more depth the strategies used when thinking critically to solve problems.
