I am Sk. Sahib Sadman from Bangladesh. I have completed my B.Sc. in Electrical & Electronic Engineering from Khulna University of Engineering & Technology. I want to complete my M.Sc. & Ph.D from Finland. But my cgpa is very low. I want to know that does cgpa make any factor to get admission to any of the university in Finland. Please help me.

what else would be a factor for admissions if not GPA? Finnish universities do not require GRE except for a few programs but if you have taken it and got exceptional scores, you might send those results as well, however I'm not sure if they will even look at it. The Swedish universitis, for example do not accept any additional documents.

My Cumulative GPA is low. I want to know with low CGPA can I apply for higher education in Finland ? I have heard about GRE. It's make plus point to get admit here. But I am giving more priority on IELTS. I have heard that it's compulsory for admission in Finland.

But I am giving more priority on IELTS.

IELTS is used purely to ensure satisfactory language proficiency of a candidate. As long as it's within the required limits, it won't have any effect on your chances to get admitted.
