Yes you can pursue BCA at LPU after Class 12, and honestly if math feels a bit weak that should not be the end of the road, so long as you have a real interest in computers and programming. At LPU, the BCA program is made to take you step by step, so you gradually learn programming, database basics, web development, software engineering, and other core IT areas. There s also a lot of practical learning, like projects, so it doesn't stay only in theory. If you enjoy working with computers, and you're ready to practice consistently, then BCA can be a solid choice, and it also sets you up for higher studies such as MCA, or for careers in the IT sector.

Greeting from LPU. Yes, you can take admission in BCA course after 12th. For BCA program, eligibility criteria is 50% with English which is required in class 12th. As far as the Mathematics is concerned it's just a basic mathematics, not the core mathematics will be studying so I think you can cope up with that easily. As we have good faculty here, so they will be helping you out with that.

Bhavuk Jain · Answer

You didn't mention which subject you have selected as your optional - maths or computers. But I think based upon your interests you have computers with you. Well now pursuing BCA from LPU is good choice as far as you have computers/maths but remember if you are willing to pursue MCA after BCA then it will cause a little trouble because MCA eligibility of LPU states that an interested candidate must have Maths at XII level or Maths as a subject of study for 1 year in BCA. Whatever may be your subject, admissions depend on the entrance exam of LPU which is known as LPU-NEST. All the best.
