Previous research revealed that the misconceptions experienced by teachers, schools and parents in implementing the National Assessment policy had different impacts.

The data collection technique used a semi-structured interview method with seven MTs Muhammadiyah PPTQ Ahmad Dahlan teachers. The results of the study reveal that the teacher's understanding of the Minimum Competency Assessment is divided into translation, interpretation and extrapolation understanding. In addition, the assessment carried out in class by informants with an understanding of translation has not changed after the implementation of the Minimum Competency Assessment policy.
