It depends on the university and country. For quantitative finance master's programs:

- USA: Most top programs require the GRE or GMAT. Some universities offer waivers if you have a high GPA (typically 3.5+), while a few make the tests optional.
- Spain: GRE/GMAT requirements vary and are not always published; you'll need to review each university's admissions policy.

With your strong academic background and work experience, you may qualify for test waivers at some universities.
