Do I need to attend college regularly for my MBA in New Zealand or the UAE, or can I study part-time from home?

What Master's programs in New Zealand or Australia can I pursue with my medical science degree and 3 years of experience as a medical officer?

Yes, your medical science degree plus 3 years as a medical officer qualifies you for several Master's programs, mainly Master of Public Health at UNSW, Monash, Sydney, or Auckland, plus Master of Clinical Research at Monash and Master of Medical Science at Otago, which specifically accept medical degrees like MBBS.

What specialized Master's courses in technology, engineering, or business would my academic background (95% in 12th grade) and IELTS score of 8.0 qualify me for in Australia, Singapore, and New Zealand?

→

An IELTS 8.0 comfortably exceeds the roughly 6.5 to 7.0 English requirement for most postgraduate programs in Australia, Singapore and New Zealand. Your 95% Class 12 score is a positive signal but not the deciding factor; universities weigh your bachelor's degree, GPA and relevant coursework far more heavily for admission.
