Hi, can someone suggest some reach/safety schools in the US? I am currently in the third semester of my masters
programme and want to apply for high energy theory/gravitation and cosmology.


Undergrad Institution: Ok college in India, unknown for physics
Major(s):physics
Minor(s):math/statistics
GPA in Major:64/100
GPA in Minor:78/100
Overall GPA:70/100
Length of Degree: 3 year bachelor
Type of Student: international male

Masters: Good research institute in India
Major(s):physics
Minor(s):
GPA:86/100(for first 2 semesters)

Length of Degree: 2 year masters
Position in Class: near top
Type of Student: international male


Research Experience: Reading Project on ADM Formalism in GR, currently doing a project on differential
geometry

Any Other Info That Shows Up On Your App and Might Matter: will take a grad course on QFT

Since my undergrad GPA is quite low and I have no publications, I fear I'll be rejected from any school I apply to especially since I am applying for high energy theory.

Also, I really don't want to shift to other areas like condensed matter theory/quantum information theory.

I will be taking my GRE's and TOEFL this year.Hopefully, I'll have competitive scores.

Any information will be helpful.
