Abstract A questionnaire of the present situation of high school students' chemistry learning achievement motivation level was compiled on the basis of chemistry characteristics and revising the AMS. Questionnaire and interview method were used to investigate the current level of high school students' achievement motivation in chemistry learning. The results show that it is at a medium high level under the new course reform. There are significant differences in the level of chemistry learning motivation among students of different genders and academic achievements. When facing the chemistry learning task that measures one's own ability, students have the highest level of motivation to pursue success and the lowest level of motivation to avoid failure. But when facing with uncertain chemistry learning tasks, the opposite is true. Compared with chemistry exercises, students have higher level of achievement motivation while facing chemical experiments and scientific inquiry activities. Based on this, inspirations for motivating and training high school students' chemistry learning achievement motivation are proposed.
