This study aims to test the effectiveness of using the experiential learning method in classical guidance services to improve the career understanding of junior high school students. There are two hypotheses proposed in this study, namely: (1) the average understanding of students' careers increased significantly after being given classical guidance services with experiential learning methods; (2) the average understanding of a learner's career increases when classical guidance is given repeatedly and varied.

The research was carried out through a quantitative approach with an experimental design. The experimental design model used is a time series. The subjects of the study were 32 eighth-grade students of State Junior High School 1 Dringu, Probolinggo, consisting of 14 male students and 18 female students. Subjects were selected by purposive sampling technique, which is to choose from those who had low scores in filling the career comprehension scale.

Hypothesis testing is carried out through statistical methods with the technique of t-test of paired samples. The results of the study proved that the use of experiential learning methods  in classical guidance services is effective in improving students' career understanding.  The understanding of the subject's career increased significantly when the treatment was repeated and varied.
