    Yes, Science students are eligible for almost every degree course, even non-mathematics students too. Many universities and colleges provides admissions to non-mathematics students into BCA. So, you'll have to look for such universities and take admission. If you want to learn programming languages which you will be studying in your BCA course then you can check out this app which is specially designed and developed for BCA students. It has programs and assignments of languages like C, C+ and Java with their outputs. You'll be studying these languages in your 3 years of BCA. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=technark.bca_co

    Hi,
    You can definitely look out for opting any Bachelor's degree programme when you are a student of science background irrespective of whether it was done with maths or biology, but yet some colleges/universities may ask you for an entrance exam testing your mathematical skills. But yet there are many universities that would admit you to BCA course without any entrance exam or displaying maths score. It is because the course primarily revolves around computers and its related programming languages.
    All the best.

Top universities require a minimum of 80-90% in your 12th-grade board exams.

  • Average universities often accept students with 60-75%.
  • For highly competitive courses like Medicine, cut off is usually higher. 
  • Strong SAT/ACT scores can also compensate for a slightly lower board percentage.

Countries like Germany and Norway are excellent options. Because public universities there charge little to no tuition fees.  The cost of living and education is significantly lower compared to the USA or UK. You must factor in living expenses and language requirements.

Class 12 marks are important for fulfilling the admission criteria and tie breaking criteria (if any) during admissions. Admission to Central Universities are conducted through CUET scores, however, candidates must fulfil the minimum marks requirement for admissions.
