Sebagai tambahan, peningkatan prestasi belajar siswa dibuktikan setelah tes pada setiap siklus (pra-tes, pasca-tes I, dan pasca-tes II) dilaksanakan: nilai rata-rata siswa pada pra-tes adalah 57,25, nilai rata-rata pada pasca-tes II adalah 75 yang mana peningkatan nilai rata-rata siswa pada pra-tes dan pasca-tes II adalah 17,75. Kemudian, persentase siswa yang memenuhi KKM pada pra-tes adalah 35%, pasca-tes I adalah 65%, dan pasca-tes II adalah 85%. Secara ringkas, hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pelaksanaan Penelitian Tindakan Kelas memenuhi target PTK (75%) yang artinya Penelitian Tindakan Kelas tersebut berhasil.
