Tests for Study Abroad
If you are planning to go overseas for further studies at a college or a university you may be required to pass and provide the scores obtained for one language exam and one standardised entrance test. In some cases, courses or countries this may be exempted also however. These exams and your scores are an important consideration in your overall application process for study abroad.
As far as language exams is concerned there are different exams that are mainly planned to test your level of proficiency with English language and are usually required to be taken with almost all courses abroad unless specified otherwise. IELTS, PTE, TOEFL are the most common language exams across most countries whereas CAE and CPE are more commonly accepted in UK. Which test should be taken for which country and course needs to be planned basis the country and course where you are planning to study abroad.
Standardised tests are linked to the course you are planning to take abroad and usually any one type of test is needed to be taken. SAT and ACT are the most common tests for Undergrad studies abroad whereas GRE and GMAT are the common ones for Masters studies abroad.
Language Tests for Immigration & PR
English language proficiency tests also play a fairly important role under some Immigration & PR programs. Many immigration programs follow a point based system under which proficiency of language and the scores obtained under the General stream of a language test may be an important criteria in their eligibility assessment points table.
