The Computer Science course at Caltech has consistently demonstrated its excellence in recent years according to THE rankings. In 2021 the University was in 25 positions. However, there has been a drastic climb in the ranking to 13th position in 2022. However, we could witness a small dip in 2022, but we can see the improvement.

Your high school grades are more important than 10th grade. You can apply for the admission. But you have to take SAT and TOEFL exam also.

Hello Harman,
Your grades are not the very best and so is your GRE which is not too high. I would have recommended you to take the GRE. Another advice check universities in Australia or NZ. US or Canada will be too competitive for you. If you have a very impressive statement of purpose you may still get through. Visit the university websites you are interested in and take a look at the average GRE scores of admitted students. You should also email the universities before submitting your application.
