IELTS & TOEFL

The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) and the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) are undoubtedly at the top of the list when it comes to the sheer volume of students who need to take one or the other to prove their English language ability. The largest number of institutions and colleges, including the top 100 in the UK, US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, accept TOEFL results. For admittance into the majority of prestigious institutions and colleges abroad, as well as occasionally for immigration requirements, the IELTS is a required exam for Indians and other non-native English speakers, particularly in the Commonwealth countries. The British Council administers the IELTS, which is given over four times a month in 71 centres across the nation.

GRE

Another examination that is well-liked by Indian students hoping to study in the US or Canada is the Graduate Record Examination (GRE). Although the structure has seen quite a few variations over the years, it is a reasonably standardised test that evaluates the candidate’s verbal, mathematical, and general analytical ability. In the US, many graduate programmes, particularly those in engineering and the sciences, have this prerequisite for entrance.

GMAT

The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT), which is a requirement for admission to business universities, must be taken by management aspirants. The typical GMAT score is between 570 and 580. However, a score of at least 700 is almost a must for admission to top schools. Recent additions to the test, such Integrated Reasoning, have raised the stakes and increased competition. The GMAT test is offered in more than 500 sites across the world. Slots must be reserved in advance.

SAT

If a person has not finished an equivalent, they must take the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT), which comes in two varieties: the Reasoning Test, which assesses basic writing abilities and grammar, and the Subject Test, which evaluates a candidate’s understanding of the subject of their choice. The College Board of the United States of America owns, created, and administers the SAT. Seven times a year, usually on the first Saturday of October, November, December, January, March, May, and June, the SAT is given in the USA. Most other nations observe the same dates.
