Hi Amritpal,
To pursue MS overseas you need to take the GRE and a test in English fluency. The Graduate Record Examination, GRE, is a standardized test, which includes the admission requirement for the graduate schools in the United States principally, and some other English speaking countries. This exam primarily focuses on testing the abstract thinking skills of the students. The areas that are covered include vocabulary, math and analytical writing. During the process of graduate school admissions, the emphasis level upon the GRE scores varies between schools. With a good GRE score you can also try for scholarships. After a GRE and TOEFL, you can use the scores to apply for admission to MTech, MS courses in subject of your choice. Funding criteria depends on country to country and college to college. However, you will be required to show proof of funds available and sound funding to go anywhere abroad. You must also prove that sufficient funds are or will be available from an identified and reliable financial source to defray all living and school expenses during the entire period of anticipated study. Specifically, applicants must prove they have enough readily available funds to meet all expenses for the first year of study, and that adequate funds will be available for each subsequent year of study. The proof of funding could also be in the form of documents showing approval of loan from a recognized bank as many students do go in for a student loan in case own funds are not available.
