Yes, English proficiency is required for Master's programs in Singapore. Most universities accept standardized tests like IELTS, TOEFL, or PTE.
- IELTS: Typical minimum is 6.0 - 7.0 overall; some programs require at least 7.0 in writing.
- TOEFL: Minimum scores vary, often around 105 (Internet-Based Test).
- PTE: Also accepted by some universities.
Since you plan to take the IELTS, targeted preparation is important. Many reputable coaching centers in India offer both online and offline IELTS classes, with options for mock tests and personalized training.
