Hi, for your profile 560 is not a bad score, you can apply for Executive programmes with this score. If you want to do only the Executive programme, you can take the Executive Assessment(EA) test conducted by GMAC.
Please go through the below link.

Hi Ashishkapur for top programs this is way too low.
By comparison, Wharton is about 700 and a bit higher for Indians because it is so competitive. However the good news is that there are a number of programs you can apply to without a GMAT score!
I am working with an applicant to MIT Sloan for the May 30 deadline and Kellogg for the June 6 deadline, neither require a GMAT (but they might require proof of numeracy - my client is a CFA and doing MBA Math as a back up. He had trouble with the GMAT as well. Another program that does not require GMAT is Michigan-Ross which meets monthly in Ann Arbor or LA. However that deadline is April 30th.
Kellogg meets monthly in Miami; MIT every 3 weeks. There are a number of global (GEMBA) programs with deadlines coming up; I am working on an article. Google Financial Times Executive MBA 2018.
Make sure to work with someone on smartly packaging your CV and work experience; what you are SELLING is the quality of your work experience, what you will have to SHARE with colleagues and what would make you a valuable connection/source of information for others. CV and recommendations are of special importance, even though your test scores and grades are of less importance.
Hope this helps.
