My two piece of advice, try for a 1-year course here, say XLRI-GMP, IIMA-PGPX, ISB, etc....
Avoid going to UK or elsewhere at this point of time, even if the opportunity looks attractive, try to consider ROI.
Now, there's a global downturn, UK courses can be prohibitively expensive, & you can not be sure of comensurate placement after course completion, try and ask any friends/relatives, if you have any in UK about placement opportunities there, before taking the UK plunge.
Secondly, even if you complete the course and come back to India, you may get a start at a lower salary, as I said there's a downturn, & many companies here are putting a freeze on hiring/bonuses/remuneration to current staff, to the extreme of giving the pink slip to so called non-performers, TCS & Infy have laid of substancial numbers, acc. to this week's newspapers, for example.
If you feel that's a gloomy pic., I'm presenting, that is the fact.
Business here is going the whole hog to retain talent, which is really scarce in India, you come across 1000's of poorly trained B-school grads, with just a few talented guys.
Don't go by gut instincts alone, do some research, & err.. leave the rest in God's hands
