Yes, four months can be enough to prepare for both the GRE and IELTS for a Fall 2027 intake, if you follow a structured and consistent study plan.

Most students need 3 - 6 months for GRE prep, but focused daily study can make four months sufficient. For IELTS, 2 - 3 months is typical, especially if you already have a good foundation in English.

Take diagnostic tests early to assess your current level, and set a balanced schedule for both exams. Regular practice and review are key to success.
