Heyy Everyone,

I'm from Mumbai, India.
I am planning to apply to the top B-Schools of UK and France for the MiM program.
I'll be giving my GMAT in the end of next month. I'll be applying for the 3rd round in March.
My doubt is, Do I need a IELTS or a TOEFL score even if I get a decent verbal score in GMAT?

Hello MoneSi,

The IELTS/TOEFL and the GMAT are independent of each other. If your target school specifies that it requires an English language test score, you will need to take the IELTS/TOEFL irrespective of your verbal score on the GMAT.

Thanks.

All the best!

MoneSi - it depends on the school. Some schools (mostly UK ones) require you to submit an IELTS/ TOEFL in addition to the GMAT/ GRE score. Some schools may also waive the requirement if your undergrad/work-ex was in an English environment.

I would suggest checking the application requirements in the schools' website and/ or emailing the AdCom of your target schools with this query.

It depends on your business school, some business schools are waiving IELTS or TOEFL or PTE based on MOI, others have a list of Universities that they believe if you are from there, they don't need your EPT certificate. My advice would be to directly ask them. Best of luck..
