Bangalore :
Indian students enrolled for Post Graduate Program in Management for Executives (PGPX) in Indian Institute of
Management, Ahmedabad (IIM-A) have the highest average Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) score of 728
among successful candidates, which is the highest in the world.
Indian institute has surpassed the prestigious Stanford
University which marked the second highest of 725, the highest for any one-year management executive programme in the
world . IIM-A’s average GMAT score has shot up from 695.42 in 2006. |

IIM-A was followed by the Indian School of Business (ISB) Hyderabad’s one-year programme which recorded an average
GMAT score of 714 for the 2008-09 batch, ranking it third in the world. In 2006-07, ISB’s average GMAT score was 707, rising
to 710 in 2007-08.
Unlike the two-year MBA programmes, executive management programmes have a minimum work experience criteria — five
to seven years, though those who sign on usually have average work experience of eight to 10 years.
“We look for high GMAT scores, leadership qualities and quality of work experience while evaluating a candidate,” said a
spokesperson for ISB, which pioneered the one-year executive management programme concept in india.
