IIMA PGPX is extremely difficult to get into. Avg GMAT is around 730 and people have an average of 10+ years of exp. I can't imagine how people with so much experience get such high scores. Honestly, in terms of difficulty of admission, peer group and career prospects in India, I would put IIMA-PGPX in the same league as H/S/W.

WTF?
Please write correct English and complete sentences.
This is a forum, not a chat room.
You'll gain more credibility that way.
Thank you.

You're missing the point dude. The point was never about my own aspirations of an Indian MBA, it was about the fact that you are writing chat style English (and incorrect English as well) that is not necessarily comprehensible by the various nationalities that read this forum.
If you don't write correct English, there really is no point trying to get a message across, because it really doesn't get across.

By the way, I really don't have high hopes of an Indian MBA - read my prior posts in this same thread - you'll get my drift. You obviously haven't read all the posts in this thread, or you wouldn't have commented as you have.

Incidentally, I have been accepted by Chicago, Kellogg, Oxford and ISB. Obviously, Oxford and ISB were backups. All are for 2009.
