As a component of students' 21st-century life skills needs, activation of cognitive flexibility is a very important factor consisting of self-awareness, adaptive capacity, and self-confidence. It can impact on how they can survive in facing various unpredictable difficulties and dynamics of life, including in their professional duties. Counselors as a profession are always dealing with various individuals with the character and complexity of their problems, so the educational process becomes a very important preparation effort. This research using a descriptive survey method investigates how the comparison quality of cognitive flexibility activation is from counseling students and non-counseling students. Purposively involved 411 counseling students and 312 non-counseling students. They were active in the academic year of 2020 – 2022 from 20 universities in Indonesia spread across 15 provinces. Cognitive flexibility activation data was collected using the Cognitive Flexibility Inventory (CFI-20) instrument and analyzed using an independent sample t-test. The results of the analysis prove that, in general, both groups of students have a relatively good quality of cognitive flexibility activation. However, there is quite a slight difference between the two groups, where non-counseling students have a better quality of cognitive flexibility activation than guidance and counseling students.
