This research was aimed at defining the effect of Realistic Mathematic Education (RME) on students’ mathematical literacy ability and disposition. This research applied the Posttest-Only Control Design. The population was all grade VII students of SMP Negeri 4 Randudongkal. The Cluster Random Sampling was used in this research and it gained class VII B as the experiment group and class VII E as the controlled group. The data on students’ Mathematical literacy ability were collected through the post-test, while the data of students’ mathematical disposition were collected through questionnaires. The research hypothesis was comparative with the right-side test. The data were analyzed using the Mann Whitney test. With the significant value of 5%, it was revealed that students’ Mathematical literacy ability and disposition attending the learning process using RME were better than those who were not.
