    Hi Anurag,
    Usually, a score above 315 is a good score for the top 20. Admission requirements again vary with universities. Some universities such as MIT do not actually require a GRE score, they review applicants on the basis of GPA and extra-curricular activities. I will suggest you to check the websites of these top universities to have a detailed understanding of what they look for in a student.
    I hope this helps.

    To get into MS in Computer Engineering program offered by any top 20 US university, students should have at least in the range of 320-340. score in Gradute Record Examination. However, this is just a general guideline. Getting a high score in GRE does not gurantee you for getting admission in your desired course/university. Specific requirements can vary depending on the university and the program.

GRE is not mandatory for all MS programs abroad. Many universities have made it optional or waived the requirement. Some top universities in US and Canada often still require or recommend it for admission.
