The research focuses on the description of the test items‘ appropriateness based on the quantitative data which is obtained through an item analysis. The subject of the study is the English final test items for the second semester of the first grade students of SMA N 2 Boyolali in 2012/2013 academic year. The data were taken from 100 students in five classes. The appropriateness of the test items is analyzed by using item analysis technique. The analysis comprises three aspects i.e. index of discriminating power, level of difficulty, and the effectiveness of distracters. The research finding shows that (1) the proportion of the difficulty level shows the percentage of 22 % for very difficult item, 44 % for satisfactory item, and 34 % very easy item; (2) only 62% of all the test items have appropriate index of discriminating power; and (3) the distracters are effective since there are 60% of all distracters which are selected by the students. Based on the result of the analysis of the three aspects above, there are only 24% of the total test items fulfilling the criteria of a good test items. Finally, it is suggested that the teacher and test-publisher follow up the results of the research. In constructing the test items, the test maker should consider the students‘ ability and the three aspects of good item criteria.
