Is it necessary for me to have GMAT for management master's courses or is it optional in Singapore for a MBA/MSc?

It is generally optional to have a GMAT score for management master's courses. Most universities - including those in Singapore - do not require GMAT for MSc or Master's in Management programs.

A strong GMAT score can strengthen your application, especially if you want to showcase your quantitative or analytical skills. For MBA or certain specialized business master's programs, GMAT may be required, but for general management master's courses, it is usually not mandatory. Requirements may vary by university and course.
