For undergraduate study
ACT/SAT
The ACT and SAT tests are
two standardised testing programs widely recognised for undergraduate
college admissions in the US. They measure students' knowledge and ability
to complete college-level work. Most colleges and universities in the
United States require ACT or SAT test scores as part of their undergraduate
application process.
For (post)graduate study
GRE
The GRE test is a standardised testing programme
which is widely recognised for (post)graduate college admissions in the
US. A General Test measures verbal reasoning, quantitative reasoning,
critical thinking, and analytical writing skills, and further Subject
Tests gauge undergraduate achievement in specific fields of study. Most
colleges and universities in the United States require GRE test scores
as part of their graduate application process.
GMAT
The GMAT test is specifically designed to help
graduate management programmes assess the qualifications of applicants
for advanced study in business and management, and is often required in
place of GRE test scores for relevant programmes.
For non-native English speakers
TOEFL
The TOEFL test measures the ability of non-native
speakers of English to use and understand English as it is spoken, written,
and heard in college and university settings. Many colleges and universities
in the United States require or recommend TOEFL test scores as part of
their application process for international students whose native language
is not English.
