IELTS or English language proficiency test is required in the UK. You must write to the universities if you are planning not to take any test. It is very rare that they accept candidates without an IELTS score. Visa rejection chances are also going to be high.

You should opt for the UK. There are a lot of disadvantages when we compare the UK with Ireland as Ireland is a small country and it is very hard to get a part-time job even in Dublin. The reputed universities are mainly located in the UK.

Dear Shefali,
You can get through if they like you. Your grades, work experience, career goals will all matter. Extracurricular are most important when you apply to B-Schools in US.

It depends where you want to work. If you are planning to work in London, it is going to be tough as they don't prefer international students and also work permit options are tight.
