dc.description.abstract"It is known that students use different strategies according to the task in turn. Besides, the strategies in used depend on the student’s ability to use it, how acquainted he is with it and his previous knowledge. The purpose of this research was to analyze what were the different test taking strategies that different students used to increase their scores in the reading comprehension section from the TOEFL exam. This in turn could help to identify those strategies and spread its use among other students to increase their TOEFL scores. In this study, the instruments in used were a pre and post TOEFL test, a reading test-taking strategy taxonomy (from Millman, Bishop & Ebel’s (1965) taxonomy on testwiseness), and a questionnaire (adapted from Cohen & Upton (2006), and Kashkouli & Barati (2012) on testing reading on multiple choice test (TOEFL) and reading tasks (FCE) respectively) recollect the different data to be analyzed (under the taxonomy’s criteria mentioned before: time-using, error-avoidance, guessing, deductive reasoning, intent consideration, and cue-using)."es_MX
