In addition, there are many types of English tests such as GRE, GMAT, LSAT, and MCAT.
Generally speaking, GRE scores are required to apply for graduate studies in American universities. However, for most art majors, most colleges and universities in the United States do not require GRE.
Applicants for postgraduate programs in management need to take the GMAT; law students need to take the LSAT; and medical schools need to take the MCAT.
2. Non-English speaking countries: 1. France: Except for those who have a master's degree in French or teachers in the French department of universities, all students studying in France need to take the TEF test.

3. Japan: In order to evaluate the Japanese language proficiency of Chinese Japanese language learners, the Japan International Exchange Foundation has set up a Japanese language proficiency test in China.
