Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate the tendencies of fifth year students when they answer TOEIC-type questions. English vocabulary tests and TOEIC-type questions have been administered in regular English classes, and the scores of the regular examinations and the TOEIC IP test have been analyzed with them. As a result, it has been found that many of the TOEIC-type questions have been interpreted as the questions that discriminated most between the upper- and lower-level students. However, an issue has emerged regarding the number of students who are able to answer the questions diligently and without missing a class, which has implied a necessity for reforms in curriculum.
