Hi Aashish, GRE scores are valid for five years not three years. You can apply during the final semester instead of final year but this won't be fruitful as your application won't be evaluated till you have the final grades. You can apply on the basis of predicted scores but you will still need the final scores for them to formally accept you. Before investing time and energy on the applications email the universities and confirm from them, every university has different requirements.

Hi Aditya,
This is an ideal time to prepare for MIT or any other top ranking university. You can take the SAT or ACT during 11th and reattempt if required. Note you don't have to take both SAT and ACT but just one of them. Incase you take SAT, SAT subject tests are also required. Now, to build your profile take part in sports, voluntary work, high level project work, seminars etc. If you are interested in computers try to design something. In short show your intellect and innovative skills. But don't limit yourself to academic activities since they need all-rounders.
Good luck.

Hi Rajas,
Every university in US has a different entry requirements and different levels of selectivity. A top ranking university might also accept you if your overall profile is outstanding and you have an excellent GRE score. You must focus on preparing a good application package, check university websites for admission requirements and prepare accordingly. Check QS ranking for the university ranks and check universities below rank 30.

Hi Adithya,
You can apply but a very good GRE score of around 315 and above is necessary to get admission in a good university. It is best you begin research on the university admission requirements, check the GRE and TOEFL requirements and prepare accordingly.

Hello Mukesh,
Scholarships in USA at the undergraduate level are very less. Also, each university has its own rules. You will have to approach all prospective colleges to obtain information.

Hi Raguram,
There is no specific answer to this because MIT looks for students who can contribute to the university and the society as a whole. You must not only be an academically bright student you must also have high values, display ethics and passion to contribute to the society. Extracurricular activities, project work, sports, arts, voluntary work are very important. Just remember this - You need not be a bookworm but you are required to be an all-rounder and demonstrate your extraordinary side to the university. Ask yourself why they should admit you and prepare yourself accordingly. Read this carefully:

Hi Taruntej, you must submit the applications atleast a year ahead. There is no possibility this year. You can submit your application if deadlines are open however your results won't be out anytime soon. Proactively visit university websites having extended deadlines say Feb to May, see if you can manage . Focus on clearing your backlogs, take the GRE and TOEFL now.
