Hi Nikhil,
I would suggest you to start your preparation from the 2nd year, but you should write it in either 3rd or 4th year because GATE and other exams cover the course of mainly 2nd and 3rd year.
If you are applying for fall, you should take latest by July or even before that, so that after writing it once you can think about a second chance, if not happy with your score, otherwise you start building up your SOP and search for the right place to go.
All the best.

As per my knowledge, GRE is not required to get admission in Australian Universities. However, IELTS or TOEFL percentage is required.
1. IELTS: Minimum of 6 in each section and overall of 6.5 band.
2. TOEFL: Minimum of 23 in each section.
3. GMAT is required by some universities for the MBA program.
Although, I would suggest you to check the requirements of the university in which you are interested.

GRE is a computer based test meant to measure your overall academic ability and is the standard exam for admission to non-business schools. However, an increasing number of business schools are accepting scores from the GRE exam.

Hi Swagata,
Chances could be good if the university do not require a GRE score. Your IELTS score is also a little low as most MS programmes require an overall score of 6.5. Kindly, visit university websites for admission requirements. Admission chances will depend on your profile and will be decided by the university solely.

Hi Gautami,
You must decide what to study and then take tests like GRE, TOEFL, etc. You must know that taking these tests involves time and money. It is entirely up to you, if you want to continue dentistry or not. Also, decide where to study as not every university and program requires GRE. GRE is mainly required in USA.

Hi,
You are eligible for US universities. Some universities are finicky about the AWA score. However, I need further details of your academics and course preference to guide you further.

Hi Sairohith,
A GRE score of 310 to 315 would be pretty acceptable with TOEFL 115 onwards.

You can target top universities like NUS Singapore, Carnegie Mellon University USA, Indiana University Bloomington, Cornell University to name a few. Universities in USA have an holistic approach towards admission so even if your UG grades were not too high you do stand a chance. A very good SOP and Letter of Recommendations will be crucial. Additionally, extra curricular activities, achievements, work experience, internships, projects etc. will also be evaluated. The final decision will depend on the university.
