Abstract

This study focuses on the problems that students’ encountered in the TOEFL® reading section and how they overcame them. This study was conducted qualitatively, with interviews serving as the primary data. Six students from the English department of UIN Ar-Raniry Banda Aceh participated. They were chosen using purposive sampling and they had taken the TOEFL® exam multiple times. Students struggled with time management, unfamiliar vocabulary mastery, and lengthy texts on the TOEFL® reading section. In the TOEFL® test's reading section, students used two strategies to solve these problems: skimming and scanning, and reading the questions before reading the text.
