Graduate Record Exam
Getting a scholarship is more difficult than admission into a university and so you have to stand out of the crowd, details about universities and how to proceed further are mentioned below,
1. Check US News, (Edulix)
2. Go through the eligibility and prerequisites of those universities
3. Find out those Universities which match your profile and interests.
4. Try to apply in the early bird application of universities. (Sometimes applying earlier can enhance your chances to get a scholarship) .
5.Go to the "Financial Aid" section of universities website to know about scholarships.
But a high GRE score may not guarantee you a scholarship but a low GRE will reduce your chances to get one.
Hello Abhinesh !
As you want to pursue M.B.A. from abroad , you don't have to give CAT and GRE as CAT is for doing MBA in India B-school and GRE is for pursuing M.S from abroad , however there are some universities which accepts score of GRE for MBA , but GMAT is the exam in which you need to appear if you want to pursue MBA from abroad.
And , along with GMAT you have to appear for other English tests also , as foreign universities usually have a eligibility criteria regarding these test scores also like TOEFL etc.
Now , as per the recent outbreak happened may be you cannot pursue education from abroad this year , as many countries have declared lock down.
As per your financial conditions I will surely suggest you colleges , if you can tell me that in which year you want to pursue higher studies.
Also , I will suggest you to prepare for CAT as old IIM's have also a good ranks globally. But it depends on your interests that from where you want to pursue your education.
Hope it helps !

Hi,
Well it depends on which degree course you are looking for. For all the masters course and sometimes for PhD courses you will have to give GRE or similar tests even if the university mentions that it is optional. And GMAT is for management aspirants. So it depend s on which degree you are looking for.
I hope my answer helps.
All the best.
Hello Greeshma,
As you didn't mention anything so I'm expecting you to be an undergraduate or you are pursuing it. First of all, I recommend you choose what you want to accomplish in future: Do you want to do your postgraduate, Abroad or in India itself?
GRE (Graduation Record Examination) is a universally comprehended exam which is supervised by ETS ( Education Testing Services). GRE examination is taken by future aspirants for postgraduate programs in foreign universities and its score are approved in over 160 countries colleges and universities across the world. GRE exam is conducted in two types such as- GRE general test and GRE subject test.
GRE general test is the primary requirements for most of the postgraduate programs in Abroad or in India which consists of verbal perception, analytical writing and quantitative reasoning while GRE subject test is specifically for subjects which you are looking for like biology.
In India, there are very few technical colleges which are accepting GRE scores but for not the same course you are opting for, while there are so many colleges or universities in Abroad which approved or accepted GRE scores.
In my opinion, the GRE general test should be given for admission in Postgraduate programs. Along with the GRE general test, it's best for you to give the subject test (in biology ) which give extra weightage to your academic record either it's your choice.
Hope its help!!
Hi aspirant! Yes, you are definitely eligible to pursue PhD from USA.
Kindly look up for edibility criteria for the colleges where you wish to apply. Some colleges do not require GRE scores for admissions in PhD. The criteria differs in each college.
However, you may have to appear for TOEFL/IELTS. Usually scores between 98-120 is accepted in most of the colleges.
Good Luck!
Dear Aspirant,
GRE is also called Graduate Record Examination and it tests your verbal reasoning skills, quantitative reasoning and analytical writing. It is a 3 hour and 45 minutes test and it is mandatory if you are applying for a Masters or Doctorate in the US. It is computer-based. You also have the option of taking it multiple times and there is a limit of taking it the maximum five times in a year. You can attempt it only once in 21 days. These scores are valid for 5 years. For the verbal and quantitative section, GRE score falls around 150 to 152. If you get 165 you are have secured close to 95%. In the section of analytical writing, an average score would be 3.5, 6 being the highest.
The paper is as follows:
You will have to write two essays for the analytical writing section within the time limit of 30 minutes where you will have to analyse one argument and one issue.
You will face 20 questions in verbal and quantitative learning each.
There is an unsecured section at the end of the exam which is a dummy and does not carry marks but is to be filled so that the conducting body can get information about the candidate.
Countries like USA, Canada, Singapore, Australia and UK accept GRE scores. Other than determining your eligibility, GRE seems to enhance a candidates profile. Taking subject tests in GRE seems to be an additional advantage for specific courses abroad.
Hope this helps. All the best!
