As you rightly pointed, GATE is an entrance exam which is used by all central universities like IITs and NITs for M.Tech admission. Where as GRE is used for Masters admission in USA. You might also need to give TOEFL exams, some institutes need that too. But if you are looking for Masters in other countries (Canada/Australia/China/Hong Kong/Korea/ Japan) you might need to take IELTS along with the university specific test. It actually varies from country to country and course to course. If you have any country in mind and any specific course, can you please elaborate, so that we can help you better.
Best regards, Path.

Hi Shivansh, the range is somewhere between 25,000-50,000 USD per year including living expenses. You have to show full tuition fee for one year while you are applying for the visa. Doing part time job won't bring down your expenses considerably and depends the kind of job you are doing. You must also see that it does not effect your studies. Consider taking education loan from an Indian bank which you can repay in 15-20 years after securing a job.

Hi Garima, GRE has no such qualification requirement or eligibility. You take GRE to study MS in USA. To pass GRE you will need to practice a lot, take regular mock exams and work on your weak areas. Check the entry requirements on university websites first, every university has their GRE score preferences. Atleast 3-5 months will be required for GRE preparation.

After 12th, you need to take SAT in order to be eligible to apply to a lot of major universities abroad. However, it is not compulsory. Some colleges do not require SAT scores. Some require ACT. But some require none of them. I would suggest you take SAT preferably in 12th grade or even after that as soon as possible and then look into individual websites of the colleges you want to apply to. To check if they accept TOEFL or IELTS. Both of them are English tests. some colleges ask for TOEFL and some want IELTS scores. If you don't know how to get started, attend some study abroad fairs.

GRE is for PG or Masters level studies in USA. SAT is for undergraduate. First learn about the differences and decide what you want to study.

Hi Urvil,
In GRE, the Verbal and Quantitative section score range is 130 -170 score and Analytical Writing section score is between 0 and 6. Try to keep your verbal and quant section score somewhere within 150-155 and analytical section score around 3.5 to get the average score. There is no passing score as such. Maintain the average. If you don't answer on any section it will be reported as No Score.

Dear Urvil!
It seems like you are comparing an Apple with the orange. (#) JEE is the core technical exam required for studying Engineering in India. Wheares GRE & TOEFL is for foreign study (Bachelor's). (#) In general, JEE is quite more difficult because of the syllabus content and the complexity level. So prepare accordingly. Hope this helps. Good Luck.

Firsrly, its important to have a clear structure for your study hours. If you think that you'll only be able to concentrate on a single section for an hour or two, then adjust your study plan accordingly by factoring in a break, or a change in your area of focus. Using practice tests is a tried and tested way of tracking your progress, and a handy way of highlighting any weaknesses in your strategy that you might not be aware of.
