The GRE scores somewhat overestimate IQ scores especially the older ones. It is true that AIMS and IIT may have IQ in the 135-148 range but then how many of these Graduates are there in whole of India. I think the proportion of people above 130 must be similar in India and US. Just that in the US we usually see Indians with high IQ- most Graduate students with fellowships and aid or somewhat low IQ- taxiwallahs and store workers. The middle range tends to remain behind in the Desh.
