Thus, the study was discussed on the awareness of meta-cognitive strategies of eighty-four (84) Form Five students in a boarding school in Ipoh, Perak. A mixed mode research method comprised of both quantitative and qualitative data was employed to investigate the meta-cognitive awareness of reading strategies of Form Five students. A survey questionnaire consisted often (10) items on demographic profiles and thirty (30) items on Survey of Reading Strategies (SORS) based on the three types of strategies types - Global Reading, Problem-Solving and Support Reading Strategies were administered to the students. Open-ended questions in the interview were used for the qualitative data as a mean of tri angulation. The findings of the study showed that all of the subjects were meta-cognitively aware of the reading strategies. This showed that the subjects had a strong awareness on using effective strategies. The results also showed that there were significant different between males' and females' level of meta-cognitive awareness of reading strategy used and their achievement in English PMR grades.
