It depends on the country and program you choose.

- Germany: GRE is usually not required for master's programs. Some top universities may recommend it for certain STEM courses, but it's generally optional.
- Singapore: GRE requirements vary by university and program. Some may require it, but many do not.
- UAE: GRE is required mainly for select research-focused programs; most master's courses do not mandate it.

With your academic profile and experience, you likely won't need the GRE unless your specific program lists it as a requirement. If it’s optional, a strong GRE score can still boost your application for competitive programs.
