It is always a crucial question – When to think about abroad studies? It is very evident from the literature and university newsletters that study abroad can be caught after 12th or diploma, after graduation, and after post-graduation. But in order to get admitted to the desired courses in the desired university destination, keen planning is must. Let us talk about the preparation for getting enrolled in studies abroad.
If a candidate is looking for graduate admission after 12th or a diploma abroad. He requires taking SAT in USA and some university in Canada and Germany. In most of the other countries like Australia, Canada, New Zealand, UK, and other European countries IELTS is required. For the preparation of SAT, students should start their preparation right after the 10th exam same rule applies to IELTS or TOEFL. After 10th, the student should finish his preparation by the end of 11th std and be ready to appear for the exams anytime during 12th std. Due to such a plan, students might not have to bother about the additional burden of these exams and 12th std preparation at the same time. If he appears for the exams 4-5 months before 12th std. examination, maximum output in all the exams can be expected.
The students seeking studies abroad after graduation require GRE and TOEFL/IELTS for getting admitted. GRE is mostly required in the USA and some universities in Canada and Germany same is the case of TOEFL. For all the other countries, IELTS is required. If a seeking student appears for the exam during the last but one year of his graduation, he can have ample time as well as focus on his regular curriculum as well.
Management students have to plan in a little different way. For getting MBA, it is better to have 2-3 years of work experience. In addition management students have to appear for the GMAT exam which is a little tough than GRE. Naturally, they need little extra time to prepare. So, those students can prepare for the examination after graduation while doing a job. This way they can enrich their work experience and prepare for the entrance exam to pursue studies abroad.
