The purpose of this research was writing experience to find out the grammatical errors madeby thesecond year students at English Department of Bung Hatta University. The design of this research was descriptive. The population of this research was thesecond year students at English Department of Bung Hatta University. The researcher used total sampling technique in taking the sample. It means the sample was 24students. Writing test was the instrument to get the data. The students were asked to write a paragraph about their good or bad experience. The test was reliable because the reliability of the test was very high (0.96).

The first,they made errors in omission (28.3%). In specific, they are omission of subject 7 (6.2%), omission of verb 3 (2.7%), omission of preposition 2 (1.8%), omission of article 2.5 (2.2%), omission of plurality 9 (7.9%), and omission of be 8.5 (7.5%).

In specific, they are misformation of V2 17 (15%), misformation of article 4.5 (4%), misformation of noun4 (3.6%), misformation of diction 21.5 (19%), misformation of verb after modal and infinitive 7 (6.2%), and misformation of –be 13 (11.5%). The last,they made errors inmisordering (1.3%). In specific, they are misordering of adjective 1.5 (1.3%), andmisordering of modal auxiliary (0%). The researcher found that most errors made by the students were misformation (59.3%). Based on the result of the research, the lecturers are suggested to minimize the students’ grammatical error by giving more exercise in writing.For students, they are suggested to learn more in writing experience. They also should know about grammatical errors that they might do in writing.
