First, the metacognitive strategy was not so frequently used, which we had not predicted.
According to the research literature, a successful language learner is required to employ the metacognitive strategy frequently.
The relationship between the test-taking strategy and the metacognitive process, especially in the connection between learners’ English proficiency and the test type that influences how they should answer the questions should be studied further.
Secondly, the reason why some strategies were not employed should be researched. Is this confined to the participants of this study, or can it be applied to the TOEIC test takers in general?
Does the instruction of least frequently used strategies enable test takers to improve test performance?
Thus, the strategy use training for test taking should be studied as well.
Thirdly, what kind of preparations is effective to the TOEIC test takers?
That is, it is significant to study about the strategies test takers should use before the TOEIC test and during the test. Further study of the relationship between test-taking strategy and the strategy use training would be conducted.
