Abstract

The ability to understand texts is one of the essential skills needed in the Computer-Based Written Examination (UTBK), especially in the literacy and reasoning section. However, many participants still experience difficulties in understanding long texts within a limited amount of time. This study aims to identify the application of skimming and scanning strategies and their relationship with UTBK text comprehension. The research employed a quantitative approach with a descriptive correlational design. Data were collected through an online questionnaire distributed to 21 respondents consisting of senior high school students and gap-year participants who had taken the 2026 UTBK. The research instrument used a Likert scale with 12 statement items covering aspects of skimming and scanning strategies, text comprehension, and perceptions of the influence of reading strategies. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistical techniques through mean calculations. The results showed that most respondents had applied skimming and scanning strategies in reading UTBK texts. These strategies were considered helpful in improving reading speed, identifying main ideas and specific information more easily, and increasing respondents’ confidence while answering questions. Nevertheless, some respondents still experienced difficulties in understanding texts due to the complexity of the passages, limited vocabulary, and time pressure. Overall, the findings indicate a positive relationship between the use of skimming and scanning strategies and the ability to comprehend UTBK texts. This study also
