Abstract: This research aims to describe the profile of junior high school students with climber’s, camper’s, and quitter’s type in problem solving from related with mathematics literacy using Polya steps. This research was a qualitative descriptive research. The subjects of this research were taken by using a combined technique of stratified sampling and Snowball sampling. The subjects of this research were seven 9th grade students of SMP Negeri 6 Surakarta regency, which consisted of three students with climber’s type, two students with camper’s type, and two students with quitters’s type. The data were collected through questionnaire and task-based interview technique on subject matter of space and shape mathematics literacy third level.
