If I opt for scholarships, do I need to appear for the GMAT test in Ireland for a Master's/MBA?

No, you generally do not need to take the GMAT to apply for scholarships in Ireland for master's programs. Most scholarships consider your academic record, admission offer, and English proficiency (such as IELTS).
GMAT is typically required only for certain business or MBA programs, and even then, waivers may be available if you have a strong academic background and work experience. For most scholarships, GMAT scores are not mandatory.
