@AbhijithC I recommend you delete your last name. It makes you too identifiable.

You are on a good path for admissions to U of T. Keep it up. I recommend that you read the info I posted for Jon1717 regarding admissions to the CS major at U of T.

Look into the University of Waterloo too.

Hard to chance you for some schools since you don’t appear to have SAT’s.

@aunt bea apart from the SATs can you give a rough chance

I am sure to get a good to very good SAT score as I will be preparing for JEE which is comparatively more difficult

Come back when you have a test score under your belt.

Make sure your parents can afford the schools.

Financial aid?

U of T and other Canadian schools for the most part don’t do financial aid. They give out a very small number of merit awards.
