From Table 4.6, it can be reviewed distribution of students ability as the following chart.
The percentage of Students’ Score in Using Conditional Sentences
52 According to the chart above, the ability of the grades XI students of SMA
Cahaya Medan, it is stated that: •
1 student 1,7 of the respondents has very good ability in using conditional sentences.
• 0 students 0 of the respondents have good ability in using conditional

Based on Table 4.6, there are 40 students 66,6 of respondents who choose A, 15 students 25 of respondents who choose B, and 5 students 8,4 of
respondents who choose C in the first item. In the second item, there are 5 students 8,3 of respondents who choose A, 40 students 66,6 of respondents who
choose B and 15 students 25 of respondents who choose C. In the third item, 50
54 students 83,3 of respondents who choose A, 4 students 6,7 of respondents
who choose B, and 6 students 10 of respondents who choose C. In the fourth item, 3 students 5 of respondents who choose B, 50 students 83,3 of
respondents who choose A, and 7 students 11,7 of respondents who choose C.
In addition, the researcher also conducted interviews with English teachers. Answers were obtained generally equal to the results of the questionnaire submitted
