Hi Aman
First of all you got to know about both courses BCA and Btech so here is the detail :-
Difference Between BCA and B Tech
Bachelor of Computer Applications is a three years bachelor's course taught in colleges across universities in India and to be at par with B Tech, you need to supplement it with an MCA course which is again a 3 years masters program. In other words, you have to study for 6 years to be at the same level of a B Tech student.
1) Companies give more credit to students who have an engineering degree (B Tech) than students who have simply done their BCA. However, students armed with an MCA degree can expect a high salary band.
2) B.Tech is a much advanced and comprehensive course compared to BCA. B Tech deals much more about the technical aspects and develops the engineer in you while BCA is a degree providing a base for higher studies.
3) For doing Mtech , BCA students have to do MCA means
BCA (3 year) + MCA (3 year) + Mtech (2 year) = 8 years
Btech (4 years) + Mtech (2 year ) = 6 years
4) Even MCA students are less preferred by companies in comparison to Btech student.
As you see if you are doing Btech then no need to do BCA even MCA in some case if you get good percentage in Btech ( Because you are getting direct opportunity of doing Mtech so why to do BCA ? )
doing two courses simultaneously will pressurise you with study load and at exam time you will also get confuse.
So in my opinion do Btech and get good percentage by focusing on your studies rather than doing other course and then appear for GATE and do Mtech. ( If you have time for doing BCA then invest that time in preparationn of GATE ).
