I wasn't comparing how tough or easy MBA is compared to ACCA/CA, plus I was referring to a masters degree from ivy league and definitely NOT LUMS. Getting admission in those unis is a better achievement than doing ACCA (no joke!).
I don't see a reason why people degrade degrees by comparing them with ACCA/CA or vice versa. Both have their own pros and cons. I still would agree with anyone who'd claim that an ACCA has more in depth knowledge than any graduate in a similar field.
But you should see it from a different perspective too. MBA's are still sought for because they are more groomed than ACCA's with no work experience. Why?.. Simply because they learn how to give presentations and because they are also marked for class participation, they have to take part in class lectures and overall they become professionally groomed. They have the habit of making reports and doing other practical stuff that helps them later on.
The gist here is, don't compare them on different grounds. I met a very well known CA, who happens to be a partner of one of the big four. He too explained the importance of an MBA degree and how good a combination it is with ACCA/CA.
