Yes, obtaining a GRE score can enhance your profile and may improve your chances of receiving scholarships for master's programs in Italy and Germany.

- Italy: Most universities do not require the GRE, but some, like Bocconi University, accept it for certain programs and may have specific score requirements.
- Germany: The GRE is generally optional, but select universities may require it for specific programs. A strong GRE score can also support scholarship applications, as some funding options consider standardized test scores.

If your academic record is average, a good GRE score can help strengthen your application. Always check the exact requirements for your chosen programs, as these vary and are subject to change.

If you need guidance on preparing for the GRE or understanding program requirements, please reach out to your LeapScholar counsellor.
