This study aims to investigate the information regarding the impact of Kurikulum Merdeka implementation on the interest in learning physics among high school students in Makassar. This quantitative descriptive study utilized a survey method involving 1,041 tenth-grade students. Data were collected through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. Descriptive analysis shows that the average student interest score is in the "high" category (Mean = 108.39). The implications of these findings suggest that the flexibility of Kurikulum Merdeka fosters a more engaging learning environment; however, challenges remain in aligning student interest with actual learning outcomes. Further research should focus on longitudinal studies to evaluate the long-term impact of this curriculum on science literacy across diverse regions.
