GRE ,IELTS ,TOEFL which exam is more useful for an engineering student ......to get a job abroad..?

Sonali Sahu Student Expert 15th May, 2019
GRE is more useful and easy to crack even. There are many colleges which consider GRE for selection so it increases the chance of getting selected. To crack the exam there will be lots of hard work to be done. Then the paper will be easy. On the comparison basis GRE is good and preferred mostly by most of the graduates.
Hope it helped!

Does philippines requires TOEFL or IELTS for studying

Krushnalee Surve 7th May, 2019
Hi Urjaswati,


To pursue a Masters degree in the Philippines, you will have to give GRE and a test for language proficiency. As you know, the two, universally accepted tests for language proficiency in English are IELTS and TOEFL. In Philippines, most universities accept IELTS scores rather than TOEFL scores. So, if you wish to pursue higher education there, you should give IELTS instead of TOEFL.

Does philippines requires TOEFL or IELTS for studying

sahanahegde44 13th Dec, 2020

Hello Aspirant,

Hope your doing good!

International students who wish to study in the Philippines for a course above the level of high school will need to secure a student visa from the Philippine consulate in their home country after getting admitted to their chosen university.

The IELTS (International English Language Testing System) is another English language proficiency exam jointly owned by the British Council and IDP: IELTS Australia and Cambridge English Language Assessment.

Most students end up taking up their undergraduate degrees in the PH and these don't require TOEFL exam scores for admissions. Most universities have their own entrance exams that test for English language proficiency.

Hope this helps, for more such queries ping us below!

Thankyou.

Good Luck for everything ahead :)

However, a good number of students who plan to take up their undergraduate or graduate degrees in the US do take the TOEFL. Students who end up in the UK or other former UK colonies normally take the IELTS.

What are the benefits of writing TOEFL exams for aeronautical engineers?

Twinkle yadav 24th Apr, 2019

Hello,Allwyn

The advantages of TOEFL exams are as follows:

Academics advantage-being awarded as a high score in TOEFL exam proves your competence in english and this gives you an edge over the others in the university.A high score also enhances the probability of gaining admission in a top university,and the biggest advantage is you will never feel out of the place.

professional advantage-Today some business organizations have made it mandatory to show high TOEFL test score to gain employment.The result of globalization is that today most organizations have a mixed population of people who speak less of a particular language and more of english and made it a global language.

personal advantage-by taking the TOEFL test and scoring high,you are a level above the rest as you are equipped with the knowledge of your proficiency in english language.This helps you to boost your confidence and communication skills.

If you are pursuing aeronautical engineering you have a great chance of studying abroad in a top university or get a job overseas.

Hope your query is answered.

does toefl high score guarantees me a good college abroad?and is the college fee waived off if the person has high toefl score?

Ishita Roy 30th May, 2019

Hello Priya, 

Scoring high in TOEFL might be just one of the reasons that may help you to get into a good college abroad, other factors are extremely important as well, for instance your overall GPA, your SOP, LORs, Extra Curricular Activities and Social Work; however good scores in TOEFL surely does increase you chances to get into a better college.

Some colleges do have this option where scoring well in TOEFL might lead to gaining some sort of Scholarship, however most colleges have TOEFL as the bare minimum and might not offer any fee concession.
