Hi Aishwarya,

IELTS would be the best option for Canada and many of my friends have written IELTS exam and applying for Canada universities. 7 out of 10 People say that IELTS exam is easier than the TOEFL exam and Hardly it takes a week to prepare for the exam and sometimes it takes just 3-5 hours, It depends on the individual and you must score at least 6.0-6.5 in R(reading), W(Writing), L(Listening), S(Speaking).

Now I am in 2nd year ME in which year should I write GATE, GRE and TOEFL and which one should I write first second and last?

Dinesh Gujarathi 31st Dec, 2017
Dear Rohith
You can take GRE , TOEFL and GATE  in the final year of your BTECH.
If you can take those test in this order..
  • GRE
  • GATE
  • TOEFL
And also you can change the order as per your convenience but you've chosen both different fields it will be difficult to prepare for all exams. Take care of that. And also try to maintain good CGPA. It makes sense.

Hi Anant,

It is nice to know that you want to pursue a Masters program in Finance in Australia. I am listing the top universities in Australia ranked for Finance and accounting.

Admission to Australian universities is quite competitive and therefore, I suggest you contact the admission coordinator with your marks and transcripts asking if your profile suits the university standards.

Moreover, I feel you should attempt TOEFL again to better your score as 84 is barely the cut off for a few universities.

Listed below is the list according to THE ranking 2018

University of Melbourne
Australian National University
University of Sydney
University of Queensland
Monash University
University of New South Wales
University of Western Australia
University of Adelaide
James Cook University
Queensland University of Technology
University of South Australia

Do revert if you require more information.

Which is better exam after cracking SAT exam in option IELTS or TOEFL?

Shubham Goel 5th Dec, 2017
This is probably the question youre most concerned with, but its pretty difficult tocompare the TOEFL and the IELTSdirectly. A better way to find the answer to this question is to ask yourself a few questions. Answer the following questions with a simple yes or no.

I am comfortable with computers. YES/NOI
am comfortable speaking extemporaneously into a microphone. YES/NO
I can type quickly. YES/NOI prefer standard American English. YES/NO
I am good at answering multiple-choice questions. YES/NO
It is easy for me to take notes from a recording. YES/NO
The authentic English sources I read/listen to/watch are usually intended to inform rather than entertain. YES/NO

If you answered YES to most of these questions, the TOEFL is probably the best fit for your skill set


I am comfortable having a detailed interview in-person. YES/NO
I have legible English handwriting. YES/NO
I can understand a variety of dialects of English. YES/NO
I prefer tests with many question types, including multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank, matching, true/false, and flowcharts. YES/NO
I feel most comfortable discussing non-academic topics in English. YES/NO
The authentic English sources that I read/listen to/watch are usually made to entertain. YES/NO

If you answered YES to most of these questions, then you might find the IELTS to be more up your alley.

Both the TOEFL and the IELTS are rigorous, widely-accepted tests that are available at a variety of locations. When trying to decide between the TOEFL and the IELTS, first consult the programs you want to apply to and make sure that they accept both; after that, the most important factors are convenience and your particular skill set.
