If you have been or are a BCA student, then it can be less challenging for you since most of the subjects of WBJEE JECA and BCA are similar. You are advised to study all the subjects and solve previous year WBJEE JECA question papers. Begin practising WBJEE JECA sample papers at least 1 or 2 months before the exam to become accustomed to the exam.
