GRE

While exploring other opportunities abroad, you must make a note of your future plans, your budget, your academic background, language barriers and career opportunities in the country you are applying to. List down pros and cons of each thing and you'll be able to narrow down one destination. Apart from Hong Kong, you can also explore US, Canada, Australia etc.

Hi Anjali,
I would like to know which program are you planning to apply for. GRE is not mandatory in Canadian universities. Although it is going to enhance your admission chances if you plan to take it.

No, GRE is not required for MS in UK or Australia only IELTS is required, if you are looking at post study work and PR then Australia is a better choice, however enroll for a 2 year course as only then you will be eligible for PR. Cost wise UK is lesser as it is only a 1 year course but no PSW or PR.

Hello Jayesh,
Have you decided the country to apply for?

No, GRE is not required for mechanical engineering as the course offered is M.Eng not MS.

No, you don't require GRE for Masters in mechanical engineering as the university offers the course as M.Eng and M.A.Sc. So you need only give either TOEFL or IELTS.

GRE coaching takes 3months typically. You need to keep deadlines of the universities in mind.

Hi Lavanya,
There is no academic GRE. What we have is academic and general IELTS. As far as GRE is concerned, there is GRE General and an optional GRE subject test which will test your knowledge in a specific subject. Check for admission requirements of the universities you plan to apply to. Some may not require GRE at all and if they do (mostly in US and Canada), you must opt for GRE general and/or the optional subject test. I hope it helped. For more details, you can visit www.ets.org

You can use practice material provided by Barrons or Kaplan and check www.gre.org as well for other resources.
