Abstract: Many university students found reading academic journals for the first time is a difficult task. They were burdened by the complex syntactic structures, unfamiliar vocabulary and unfamiliar discourse. The general aim of this study was to present a picture of the metacognitive awareness of reading strategy used when the students read academic journals. A hundred of students in the middle of their third year were asked to complete the survey of reading strategies (SORS) adapted from Moktari & Sheorey (2002). The overall result of the study showed that the participants were medium users of strategies with problem solving strategies as the most preferable strategy, followed by global and support strategies.
