Waiting too long to read the test, i.e. 10 minutes in your case, gives a false positive.
There are parameters to reading tests like these. The results are more accurate if read in the time frame stated on the directions.

Try another test and follow the directions exactly. False positives and false negatives happen mostly due to human error, not following the directions exactly.
It's very important to take the test exactly as directed.

No. You may get your period soon. It's too early to test for pregnancy.

Dollar store brands are just as accurate as the high end brands. You pay for the name. The test is the same.
You still have to follow the directions, which you didn't. So the positive you got 10 minutes after taking the test, is not an accurate reading.
Also, you had sex 3 weeks ago, and seem to think that means you're 3 weeks pregnant. That's not the case at all. Do you know how conception works? Read up on it.
How late is your period? You shouldn't test until your period is at least 2 weeks late. Then test using first morning urine.
