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. -
Most universities demand mathematics as the mandatory subject to be studied in 12th as the eligibility criteria for the admissions for BCA.
