Entrance exams for graduate degree programs vary depending on the type of program you plan to enter. Some tests are general exams that are accepted by a wide variety of graduate school programs, while others are specific to a certain type of graduate or professional school. It is best to check with the graduate school to ascertain which test(s) are required for the program you wish to pursue. Both the GRE and MAT are general exams for graduate school admission.
