Abstract
The study investigated the significant interaction between using multiple-choice test-taking strategies and general English proficiency levels of Iranian EFL students. For this purpose, 137 Iranian BA students majoring in TEFL participated in the study who answered some sections of a TOEFL test and a test-taking strategy questionnaire. The results showed that more proficient test takers used total test-taking strategies as well as different subcategories of the strategies more frequently than less proficient test takers. Concerning the subcategories of test-taking strategies, significant differences were found among the participants in using guessing strategies.
