Are there any exams I need to take to join the universities abroad for a Master's?
Yes, most universities abroad require you to take certain standardized exams for admission.
- English proficiency: Tests like IELTS, TOEFL, or PTE Academic are typically required, even if your previous education was in English. Requirements vary by university and country.
- Aptitude tests: For master's programs, some universities may ask for the GRE (Graduate Record Examination) or GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test), especially for technical or management courses.
- Program-specific tests: Some fields (like medicine or law) may require additional exams.
Requirements depend on your chosen country, program, and university. For personalized guidance on which exams you need, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
