You have the following options after BCA:
1. Do an MCA (which I recommend not to) which is a 3-years course again. The curriculum is almost as same as BCA course so you end up studying same things that you studied in BCA. Plus placement for MCA is not that great these days. So many colleges are shutting down their MCA department due to very low demand. Overall BCA+MCA options is dying in India due to less acceptance from IT companies or a very low package.
2. Get into job oriented courses like Wipro WASE program. It's a 4-year program (on the job) which Offer M.Tech in software engineering degree at the end of 4 years by BITS, Pilani (Wi

I would first recommend you to finalise on one course as preparation for both the courses are different. Crash course will definitely help you and you must go for it. To clear any competitive exam, it's very important to know the tricks for speed and you must join some good crash course for the same.

Hello Admin,
Engineering colleges do not provide you with a degree of BCA. This can be obtained after completing the 3-year course in a normal college. There are a huge number of colleges that dish out BCA graduates every year. Both Delhi and Bangalore have good colleges. You can even select Amity University.

Yes, you should join the classes. If you want to take admission in IIT or NIT then you have to drop one year.

Hi Roshan,
You could have but the problem is they don't have BCA. In fact BCA is only found in India. You can apply for B.Sc computer science etc. To study here you must also have around 90% in 10+2 and know German language. The other issue is you can't apply to German universities after 12th, they need 13 years education. So you can complete the first year of a Bachelor degree course in India and then apply.

There is no provision for admission in lateral entry after completing a diploma for the course of Bachelor in computer application.
Any diploma that you pursue, it being a technical diploma after completing your 12th can allow some scope of entry in the B.Tech course or other short-term engineering courses such as ITI. However, BCA degree programs have strict eligibility criteria.
The basic eligibility for the course is 12th with 45% pass marks and the admissions depend on either the merit list of the college or the entrance exam results for admission of students.
