No, the GRE exam is not conducted exclusively for American universities. Many universities in the world ask students to submit their Graduate Record Examinations score. Some top universities release the GRE cut off score indicating the minimum scores required to apply for admission.
This is true that GRE is one popular standarzied test but some institutions may not require GRE scores for admission, especially for certain programs or applicants with specific qualifications. However, it can help you in other ways such as getting scholarships and higher chances of getting admission in top universities in the world.
