Greetings,

So there are two traditional ways of getting admission into a B-School course after clearing an exam in the US.

- Through GRE (Graduate Record Examinations)

- Through GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test)

While GRE is a general test not specifically meant for MBA admissions and also includes science as well as arts courses, GMAT is a B-School specific test.

Most universities in the US accept both scores (though some have qualms about accepting GRE scores and prefer GMAT)

Apart from taking one of these tests you also will need tp clear an international English Proficiency exam, TOEFL is one of them (other being IELTS more prevalent in the UK)

-Please keep in mind that the good B-schools there in USA prefer versatility of resumes than just a top scorer in GRE or GMAT. (Although, getting into the 98th or 99th percentile with these exams is always an advantage) so I'd advise you do some research on where to apply and what are the criteria followed there.

Good day!
