    Dear Akilan,
    These exams are required, but not all. Let me explain.
    (1) You only need IELTS and TOEFL if and only if the medium of instructions in your graduation is not English. Which means if you have studied from a Hindi medium or any local medium then either IELTS or TOEFL is required.
    (2) GMAT is mandatory if you are looking for Masters (preferably in management or non-engineering/medical) abroad. However, GRE is for doing engineering.
    PS: Marks in all these exams are based on the university criteria.
    Hope this helps.
  • No, without this also you can do MBA. If you apply for freshers MBA in the UK, there no need of GMAT or GRE. If in your class 10th and 12th exams, you scored more than 70% in English, you can get an exemption for IELTS or TOEFL.

GMAT pattern is easy to understand for students including Indian students. There are three sections and 64 MCQs that have to be answered in 2 hours 15 minutes. There is no essay question or sentence correction questions. Exam is adaptable and sections get difficult based on previous section's performance. The GMAT's exam pattern has changed over time and there is no major challenge in understanding it. Students who are thinking of applying for GMAT should first read and understand its pattern and structure and then start exam preparation.
