Is the GRE score required for the economics master's program in the UK?
It depends on the university and your academic background. Most UK universities do not require GRE scores for applicants with a UK undergraduate degree in economics or a related quantitative field. However, for international applicants or those with non-UK degrees, GRE requirements vary:
- UCL: GRE required for international applicants; minimum Quantitative score 162.
- LSE: GRE required for those without a UK economics degree; minimum Quantitative score typically 164.
- Southampton: GRE not mandatory, but a strong score (162+) can help.
- Surrey: GRE Quantitative Reasoning is compulsory.
- Edinburgh: GRE/GMAT optional but can strengthen your application.
GRE requirements are subject to change.
