    While exploring other opportunities abroad, you must make a note of your future plans, your budget, your academic background, language barriers and career opportunities in the country you are applying to. List down pros and cons of each thing and you'll be able to narrow down one destination. Apart from Hong Kong, you can also explore US, Canada, Australia etc.

    Dear Peeyush, While GRE is not mandatory but would surely help your application to universities in Hongkong.
    You should look at Hongkong University, Hongkong University of Science & Technology, City University of Hongkong & also some good universities in USA as you are writing GRE & TOEFL for CS, I am sure you would have lots of options.

No, GRE is not mandatory for all universities. Top institutions like University of Toronto and UBC often require. Many universities like Simon Fraser University, Ryerson (TMU), and Carleton University make it optional or waive it if you have a high GPA and relevant work experience.

Candidates with a valid score of CAT/ GMAT/ GRE score are exempted from the written test. These candidates still need to complete the form by paying the application fees. However, these aspirants may get called for the IIM Trichy - Chennai campus PGPBM interview round.
