You should prepare for an English language proficiency test, such as IELTS, TOEFL, or PTE Academic. However, since you have a strong academic background and studied in English, you may be eligible for an IELTS waiver at some universities in Ireland or the UAE if you provide an English Medium of Instruction (EMI) certificate from your university.

Most master's programs in Ireland and the UAE do not require GRE or GMAT, unless specified for certain business or specialized courses.
