Abstract

This study was conducted to determine the level of reading comprehension of Guimaras State College - Mosqueda Campus students. The respondents of the study were the freshmen students of the GSC Mosqueda Campus. Descriptive research design was used.

Results revealed that most of the respondents were BIT students, female, aging from 15–20. Most of their households had a monthly family income of less than 10,000.00.

The respondents' level of reading comprehension when classified as to profile, exposure to English reading materials at home, and monthly income was interpreted as "good".

Results further revealed that age, sex, course, and exposure to English reading materials had a significant difference in the level of reading comprehension of the students. No significant difference was found when they were classified according to monthly income.
