Yes, preparing for the GRE can improve your chances of securing scholarships for master's programs in Singapore and the UAE.

- Singapore: Some universities recommend or require GRE scores for international applicants. Strong scores can boost your application and scholarship prospects.
- UAE: Certain universities require a minimum GRE score, while others focus on academic records. A good GRE result can strengthen your profile for scholarships where GRE is considered.

Since requirements and scholarship criteria are subject to change, focusing on the GRE is a smart move for competitive applications. If you need help planning your GRE preparation, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
