Recount text is a type of text taught in English subjects at the junior high school or MTs level. This research aims to determine students' abilities in writing recount text. Data was obtained through a writing test given to students. The students' writing results were then examined by looking at five components, namely content, organization, grammar, vocabulary and mechanics. The data was then described using qualitative methods. The research results show that students' ability to write recount text is low. This can be seen from the average score between 56 and 65. This proves that students still experience difficulties in writing, so the quality of their writing is less than satisfactory.
