GRE or GMAT, which one should I take, why do I need to take these exams, where the scores can be used, all such questions might bothers a student who plans to take this test. First of all

what is GMAT or GRE. GMAT is one of the standardized tests which is being accepted by business schools only, which means that if you are planning to enroll in to any business school then only you should take GMAT as it cannot be replaced by GRE. GRE is accepted by both graduate schools and business schools, so if you are planning for any master’s degree or going for any b-school then you must opt for GRE. GRE gives you flexibility of choosing the course. There are certain B-schools that accept only GMAT score and not GRE, and some accept both, so a student needs to find out that whether his or her choice of institute accepts the GRE score or not.

Now, how should you plan for your tests, let’s find out.

Scheduling the test

First thing you need to decide is the universities and colleges you are targeting for admission, based on that you can schedule you GRE or GMAT test, which could be based on the application deadlines of the selected colleges and universities. It is necessary for the students to attach their test scores with the application form. So you must plan to take the test at least a month before the deadline. The results of the test take almost 15 days for declaration of your scores, so a student has to synchronize and plan the test dates with the deadlines of the universities and score receiving dates, for successful admission procedure.

Scheduling your test on the basis of college deadline could be one option when you are confident enough that you would get a good score. The other option is it is better to take the test early so that if the score is not up to your expectation then you could take the exam again after a gap of 21 days. These tests could be given 5 times in a year.

Some students take the test along while pursuing their college, but it is not advisable by the experts to conflict the regular course with GRE or GMAT. This could affect the preparations too. A student should be well prepared before taking the test.

Structure of the Test

Both GMAT and GRE are computer adaptive tests and duration of both tests is almost 3.5 hours. The cost of giving GRE is $195 and for GMAT it is $250. GRE consists of analytical writing (two essays), verbal reasoning and quantitative reasoning.  GMAT is comprised of analytic section with one essay, integrated reasoning, quantitative section and verbal section.  GRE emphasizes more on vocabulary and GMAT on grammar.

Which test is easier depends on the student to student as in GRE, Math and quant require strong skills whereas in GMAT math section is comparatively easier. GRE’s verbal section could be a struggle for those who find difficulty with vocabulary and style, whereas GMAT requires more grammatical skills. So it depends more on the students, that on which sections they are comfortable more and on the basis of which they can decide which exam to opt for. There are students who take both the exams too. If still confusion persists it is advisable to take free practise test of GRE and GMAT to decide.

IELTS scores are accepted by a significantly large and growing number of educational institutions and countries as a proof of competency in the English language. Australia, Canada, UK, New Zealand and South Africa are some of the major countries that accept IELTS scores as proof of proficiency in English.

The IELTS Academic exam and the IELTS general training exam: The IELTS exams are of two types, the IELTS academic exam and the IELTS general training exam. The IELTS Academic exam is aimed at test takers who want to study at universities and other third level education institutions in English speaking countries. The Academic exam assesses the candidate’s general language skills as well as their competency in academic English, The General Training version is for test takers who want to work, train, study at a secondary school or migrate to an English-speaking country. For both versions, the candidate is assessed on his ability listen, read, write and speak in English and a score is assigned to each category. The IELTS scores range from a band of 1-9 with 1 indicating least competency or non-speaker and 9 indicating expert speaker. There is no minimum pass marks for IELTS, every country sets its own minimum acceptable threshold for each category for the IELTS score. For example the minimum IELTS score for immigration to Canada is widely believed to be an overall score of 6.0 across all categories.

The IELTS exam locations and dates: The IELTS can be taken at more than 1,100 locations in 140 countries worldwide. In India, the IELTS is administered by the British council, and is available at 42 locations across the country. The candidate can choose from any one of the 48 IELTS exam dates in a year. The candidate needs to apply for the test dates in advance.

The IELTS Modules: is broadly divided into four modules; listening, speaking, reading and writing. For the listening module, the candidate taking the test is expected to listen to a recording, which comprises of a variety of vocal examples including, monologues, conversations of different types and academic discourses, delivered in a range of accents including Canadian, British, American and Australian.

The IELTS reading modules different for the IELTS academic and IELTS general training test. The IELTS academic reading test comprises of three reading passages followed by a variety of questions, which can be classified under various task types like multiple choice, identify information, choose the following and match the following among others. The IELTS academic reading passages are taken from various media such as books, journals, magazines and newspapers, and cater to a general audience. The IELTS academic reading passages are typically written in a wide variety of styles, examples of which include descriptive, logical, argumentative and non-verbal texts such as charts and diagrams.

The IELTS general training reading module is divided into three sections, via ‘social survival’, ‘workplace survival’ and ‘general reading’. The IELTS general training reading passages are selected from newspapers, magazines and books which are of general interest to a wide range of users.

For the IELTS speaking module test, the candidate is engaged in a conversation with the examiner, where the examiner asks him some questions about himself and his personal life and interests, including his home, family, work etc. The examiner assesses the candidate on his ability to understand and respond to the examiners questions appropriately. The examiner further asks the candidate to elaborate on a given topic for one to two minutes and encourages the candidate to answer a few questions about the topic.

The IELTS writing module too varies for the two test types. For the IELTS academic writing test, the candidate is expected to complete two mandatory writing tasks, both of which are mandatory. The test takers are asked to look at visual information and describe it in their own words for the first task. For the second task candidates are asked to respond to an argument or problem. The IELTS general training writing, also, consists of two mandatory writing tasks. However the general training writing test differs from the academic test, in the nature of the material expected to be written. Here the candidate is asked to write a letter in response to a situation for the first task, and is required to write an essay in the second.

The IELTS test results are typically provided 13 days after completion of the test. The test results are generally posted, but may also be personally picked up if so desired

The IELTS test score validity period is two years. However some countries may accept test scores that are older for specific categories of visas. For example Australia considers a three year old test score as valid for its general skilled migration category

Don’t let the low GMAT Score affect your MBA aspirations!

The GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test) score is one of the most important criteria for admitting students who aspire to study abroad in the subject of management. The students who score higher on their GMAT test obviously have a better chance to study abroad at the MBA program of their choice. However it often happens that students in spite of months of dedicated preparation and attempting many mock tests fail to obtain their targeted score. This can not only hamper their chances to study abroad their desired MBA program but can also have a huge impact on their confidence. We offer some tips on how to overcome a low Graduate Management Admission Test score.

Retake the GMAT test with better preparation

Students who score low on their Graduate Management Admission Test can feel quite depressed and lose their self confidence, which is not surprising as scoring less after months of meticulous preparation can easily erode ones drive to succeed. It is however important not to let the feeling of dejection take over, to start afresh and prepare once again to retake the test. If a student who wishes to study abroad has at least one month till the admission deadlines, it is recommended that he study afresh and with renewed zeal retake the test.

Get professional coaching for GMAT

Many students, who aspire to study abroad for MBA, choose to attempt the GMAT on their own. However self-study can be difficult for many students, especially when they have to rely on their own self-discipline and time management strategies. When reattempting the Graduate Management Admission Test, It is important to strategically learn from the mistakes that one has made in the past. If relying on self study has not helped in achieving a good score, one can rely on a professional tutoring program for a streamlined approach to GMATtest taking. A professional coaching center like Global Tree can not only help you formulate a proper study schedule but can also help you identify your weak spots and provide you with tips on overcoming them before attempting your GMAT test once again.

Write an excellent essay

Many MBA schools ask their prospective students to write an essay or answer an essay question which can provide the school with additional details about the student. If you feel that your GMAT score is low for your targeted school then it is important to focus doubly hard on the essay and allow that to reflect your strengths. The student should not make the mistake of rambling on in the essay but should write a strong and effective essay that directly addresses the essay prompt. The essay is one place where you can showcase your unique abilities and convince the admissions committee on why they should admit you to an MBA program despite your low Graduate Management Admission Test scores. Also if you are asked to write an optional essay as a part of your Business school admission, you should definitely take up the opportunity. Make sure that you clearly outline your achievements and career goals. If you are recounting an anecdote about your life, make sure that it is written in a manner that will engage your audience. Make sure that the essay conveys your true strengths to the committee and assures them that your low scores on the GMAT are not indicative of your abilities and strengths.

Pursuing your MBA at a top university is a dream that can definitely come true for you if you attempt it with the right approach and the right support. To know more about attempting the GMAT, and other entrance exams such as TOEFL, IELTS, GRE, SAT and so on contact Global Tree Overseas Education and Immigration Consultants for personalized coaching based on your specific need.

GRE: Your Gateway to Excellence in Overseas Education

The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is a standardized examination that is taken by all candidates deciding to apply for graduate school in USA The test is conducted by Education Testing Service (ETS).  The GRE test is classified into two types the GRE General test and the GRE Subject test. Most graduate, business or professional schools ask for their applicants to take the GRE General test as a measure of their proficiency and to Benchmark them against other candidates. Quantitative Reasoning, Verbal Reasoning and Analytical Writing Skills are the subjects measured by the General GRE Tests. These subjects are general in nature and not related to any specific field. The GRE Subject test however, apart from testing the candidate in the general subjects also tests the candidate in a specific subject of his choice. The GRE Subject test is taken by students who wish to pursue advanced studies in the subject of their choice. For example, a student who intends to do his MS with a major in Economics would need to take the GRE Subject test for Economics. Many top Universities accept scores for GRE General Test, but highly recommend that their candidates take the GRE Subject test. Taking the GRE Subject test, even when it is not a mandatory requirement is highly recommended as it can give one the edge over other candidates.

Admission selection panels in colleges and universities use the GRE test scores as a supplementary measure to a candidates undergraduate transcripts and other records in order to evaluate his/her eligibility for their post graduate and Doctoral programs. As many graduate schools have students coming from different educational backgrounds and different undergraduate schools, it becomes difficult for the college to conduct a fair evaluation. The GRE test scores serve as a common benchmark for comparing the applicants. The advantage of a GRE for students is that, even though they were unable to gain high percentage of marks in their undergraduate study, owing to various reasons, they can still hope to enter a college of their choice by getting a good score in the GRE. Although GRE scores are not the only criteria of admission, they are one of the most crucial and most colleges assign maximum weightage to GRE scores when considering a student’s application.  However the weight assigned to GRE scores is the prerogative of the colleges and the individual departments within the colleges and thus may differ from program to program.  Some graduate programs also assign different weightages to different sections of the GRE test scores. For example a graduate program in Mathematics or Statistics would assign more weightage to the Quantitative ability sections, whereas a graduate program in literature would assign more weightage to the Verbal reasoning section. GRE test scores are also used by Colleges and universities to evaluate and select deserving candidates for various scholarships and fellowships offered by the school. Universities generally do not reveal the cut off scores for admission to their programs, but most students who are accepted into the top Ivy League colleges, tend to have an average score of 160 overall and between 145-170 in the quantitative and verbal sections.

The GRE test is offered both as a paper and pencil test and a computer based test. The computer-based test can be taken at any time of the year, at any of the Prometric test centers, located around the world.However when deciding on a test date, it is important to keep in mind the application deadline for the colleges one is applying to and take the test well in time to receive the test scores before the application deadline date. Also one needs to plan for the eventuality of having to take a retest. A candidate needs to wait for 21 days to take a retest for GRE. The candidate needs to take into consideration not only application deadlines at the college of his choice , but also the average daily amount of time he can spend in preparing for the test and his study style in determining the test date for GRE General or Subject tests. We understand that as a recent undergraduate student many of these aspects can be confusing and it would be difficult to take a decision regarding the date and type of test you should be taking. We at Global Tree, one of the best consultancies in overseas education are here to help you round the clock. Get in touch with us for more information and tailor-made solutions on how you can ace the GRE test and get into the college of your choice.

Adelaide: Vibrant city in Australia

 Introduction

Adelaide is a posh suburban city in the heart of Australia. Popularly known as the ‘city of churches’ Adelaide was once seen as a dowdy city, which was famous for piety more than pomp and pageantry. But all that is changed in the recent years, with Adelaide being home to a vibrant cultural scene and an eclectic night life. The capital city of South Australia, Adelaide is the fifth largest state in Australia in terms of population. Adelaide is situated on the southern coast of Australia and has a long coastline dotted with pristine beaches making it an ideal tourist location.

Climate

Adelaide enjoys a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild cool winters. The city of Adelaide enjoys a moderate amount of rainfall throughout the year.

Indians will find the climate closer to the one at home albeit a bit milder than what we are used to.

Getting Around in Adelaide

Getting around Adelaide is relatively easy with a number of options available such as buses, taxis, trains, and trams. One can even choose to rent a car and drive it one self. The Adelaide metro pass is a good option for sightseers as it allows unlimited travel for three consecutive days.  A number of bikes are also available for use absolutely free, which are provided for use within the city confines and can be obtained by producing a valid identity.  Some Trams also operate free between specific routes, thus you can enjoy the city of Adelaide at little to no cost to you. Another interesting way of getting around is to take a pedicab, these environmentally friendly cabs are a novel way to get around, they do not use any fuel and are indeed modeled after the Indian cycle rickshaws, where a carriage is attached to a cycle and a cyclist pedals the carriage around

 Things to see in Adelaide

Adelaide is a city that is alive with a pulsating and vibrant cultural scene all throughout the day and well into the night. It may very well be called the city that never sleeps.

Canada Ranked No 1 for Quality of Life

Canada The Favorite Destination for Immigrants Canada, everyone’s favorite immigration destination has been in the news for some time now, with its immigration friendly policies in sharp contradistinction with USA’s more rigid policy under President Trump. Indeed it appears as though they while the rest of the developed world was busy locking its gates and building bigger walls, Canada was going the opposite way and doing all it could to increase the number of immigrants entering the country. As minister for immigration in Canada, Ahmed Hussein stated the country, was committed to receiving a minimum of 300000 immigrants in 2017. The Canadian government has not only made it easier for immigrants to enter the country but has also launched various programs to help them integrate into their new country. The recent C6 bill passed by the Canadian parliament also makes it easier for Canadian PR holders to obtain citizenship. With all the measures taken by the Canadian authorities to support immigration, it’s no wonder that the immigrants are returning the love.

In a recent study conducted by US News and World Report. Canada was ranked as the second best country to immigrate to, preceded only by Sweden.

Abroad Study ranked Nations The study ranked the nations based on nine categories. Viz, quality of life, citizenship, adventure, cultural influence, entrepreneurship, heritage, movers, openness for business, and power. Out of all the categories listed, Canada scored highest in Quality of life to achieve top ranking in this regard. The well-developed health care and education system combined with the rising job market influenced the scoring in favor of Canada in this category. Canada also achieved a high score in the citizenship category with many of the respondents rating it highly on trustworthiness, respect for the property of citizens and human rights. The country also scored high on infrastructure, governance and a strong legal frame work as well as a well-educated population to achieve a ranking of seventh in the world with respect to entrepreneurship, and being open to business.

Canada the place to be The high scores achieved by Canada across all categories are a testimony to the commitment shown by the Canadian governments, both federal and provincial, towards immigration. Surely when it comes to immigration, the Canadian authorities are putting their money where their mouth is. A number of changes have been announced to the Express Entry program to allow it to intake more applicants and to make the application process easier. The changes include providing additional points for candidates who have siblings in Canada, as well as for those who speak French fluently and for those who graduated from Canadian universities. The minimum CRS score required to obtain an invitation to apply has been hitting record lows since the beginning of 2017. Even the provinces are pulling out all stops to attract talented new immigrants under their respective provincial nominee programs. Another significant step was taken to attract new immigrants was the launching of the Global Talent Stream, under which candidates who show themselves to be suitably qualified can have their visas processed within just 2 weeks. This would enable the most deserving and brightest candidates to enter the country in record time.

Also, the personal experience of most immigrants in Canada has been that the Canadians have been welcoming of them. In fact, a survey conducted by the Association for Canadian studies has found that there is a growing positive in the attitude of Canadians towards immigrants. According to the survey, 41% of the survey takers responded that they were happy with the current levels of immigration.
