This study aims to describe the general profile of growth mindset among
students of MA Persis Sindangkasih. The study employed a quantitative
approach and used a descriptive research method. The sample consisted of 90
students from MA Persis Sindangkasih. A non-probability sampling technique
was applied, specifically saturated sampling. Saturated sampling is a sampling
technique in which all members of the population are included as research
participants. The instrument used in this study was the Mindset Measurement
Scale. The results indicated that most students demonstrated a growth-oriented
mindset, with 51% categorized as having a strong growth mindset and 40% as
having a weak growth mindset. Only 8% of students showed a weak fixed
mindset, and none were classified as having a strong fixed mindset. The mean
score of growth mindset was 71, indicating a relatively good level. Overall, the
findings suggest that students generally possess a positive growth mindset,
although further reinforcement is still needed
