Based on the conclusion, the researcher gave some suggestions as follow:
1. For the lecturer, this research analyze about the TOEFL Prediction especially in Reading comprehension skill. Therefore, the lecturer should help the students to improve their reading skill in their study during five semesters, so the students can answer the Reading TOEFL well, such as ask them to practice reading every week or give them some strategies to make them answer some reading test quickly. The lecturer also should use the different method in teaching reading in order to take the students’ interest and motivation in reading.
2. The students’ should practice TOEFL Prediction test especially in Reading comprehension section 3. Moreover, the students should pay attention more for the dominant errors that they made on their Reading TOEFL Prediction.
3. The university should held the TOEFL test for three until four times to the students in English Education Department to measure the students’
skill especially in reading skill so that everything that they got during five semesters can be looked the result in the TOEFL test, even though TOEFL have not taught in the university as one course yet.
