According to my profile, should I take GMAT or not since I am not from an engineering field in Germany/USA for a Master's/MBA?

It depends on the specific master's program and university you apply to.
- Germany: Most public universities do not require the GMAT for Computer Information Systems or related non-business master's programs. Some specialized business or management programs may ask for GMAT or GRE scores.
- USA: The GMAT is mainly for MBA programs. For Computer Information Systems, the GRE is more commonly required. Some universities may waive test requirements if you have a high GPA or relevant work experience.
