    Hello,
    To be an engineer, you need to have science with PCM (physics, chemistry, mathematics) background. So unfortunately, in your case, you're not eligible to be a software engineer.
    However, If you had mathematics and computer as your subjects in 12th board examination, you can get for BCA (Bachelors in Computer Application), which is a 3 years course, followed by MCA (Masters in computer application) which is also a 3 years course. In case, you didn't have mathematics as a subject in 12th, then you can learn a course of your interest from reputed computer coaching institutes like NIITs etc.
    I hope I have been able to answer your queri

    Hi,
    No, you can't do engineering with commerce in 12th. You can go for BCA and MCA courses after 12th commerce and after that go for certification courses in software engineering.
