Problem-solving ability is one of the important competencies for every individual. However, PISA results show that Indonesian students' mathematical problem-solving abilities are still low. The mathematical literacy contest which was expected to improve the problem-solving ability of Indonesian students at PISA did not produce good results. This is the background for conducting this research. The purpose of this study was to determine students' ability to solve PISA-like problems level 1 to level 3 based on SOLO taxonomy and gender differences. The research was conducted in State Junior High School 2 Baki. Using purposive sampling, 1 male student and 1 female student in class VIIIF were selected as research subjects. Data collection using test and interview. The data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman technique. Triangulation method is used to determine the validity of the data. The results showed that at level 1, the PISA-like problem-solving abilities of both male and female students were at the Uni-Structural level; at level 2, the abilities of male students were at the Pre-structural level while female students were at the Multistructural level; and at level 3 both male and female students were at the Pre-Structural level.
