I gave IELTS exam in which I scored 7 and for my program it was the only score that I needed to submit. LOR- Professor/ Job, CV- 1 page resume UK style and SOP: answer the SOP questions and give it to experts or friends to re-read your answers and give their opinion Interview round: No, I didn't had any round of interviews. But SOP's, CV and LOR are important. University of Edinburgh is quite selective for their Masters degree. My program had acceptance rate of 12%
