I would say, yes you need to buy a laptop because BCA is a technical course where you'll be taught coding. So, if you've a laptop with you then you'll be able to code more often rather than depending on your college for practical classes. A laptop with i3 Intel processor, 4GB RAM will be enough for general programming languages. This will cost you around Rs. 20-30k. If you want to develop Applications and Games in future then i7 8th generation processor, with 8 GB RAM will be recommended. This will cost you around Rs.60-80k.

Yes, BCA is an easy course for every student who has interest in coding and in information technology as compared to any other IT Course. As long as you are interested in programming you wouldn't face any hurdles in learning, as programming is very interesting to learn. If you attend lectures regularly and actually try to understand the topics you wouldn't even need to study on daily basis. I personally didn't study on daily basis (only in exams time) but I used to attend every lecture and paid proper attention towards the lectures. Apart from this, I used to code for at-least 2 hours a day on daily basis, during my BCA. Your interest

As BCA is a technical course, so if you've some computer knowledge it'll be an advantage for you. If you don't have any computer knowledge then it's fine too. As you'll get to study basics of computer in your 1st semester subject which is Computer Fundamentals. Along with these basic fundamentals, you'll get to study programming from the beginning, so you don't have to worry whether you have programming knowledge experience or not. If you've interest in programming then you wouldn't face much difficulty but will find programming more interesting than any other subject.

I believe you have to have your interest towards coding because that's the only reason you're pursuing your BCA. Without the interest and willingness to code, the BCA degree wouldn't help you that much in your career. The qualities that a candidate can have is to be already aware of programming languages and their logics. If you've already studied programming in your 10+2 then you wouldn't face much difficulties in BCA. It'll be beneficial for you as you'll stay ahead of the competition and will also be able to score good percentage in your early semesters. If you want to learn programming languages which you will be studying in your B
