This study aims to 1) describe the ability to understand mathematical concepts in the circle material for class VIII students of SMP Negeri 2 Telukdalam, 2) describe the students' difficulties in solving questions about the ability to understand mathematical concepts in the circle material. This research uses a type of qualitative research with descriptive research methods. The informants in this study were all students of class VIII SMP Negeri 2 Telukdalam, namely 25 people. Data were analyzed by data reduction, data presentation and conclusion. Research data collection techniques through tests of ability to understand mathematical concepts and interviews.
