According to best of my knowledge, I would like to suggest you that Both BBA and B.Com have their own merits. It depends entirely on your interest before choosing either of the courses. If making a career in management is your priority then you should go for BBA as it is the foundation of management and has been specifically designed for MBA aspirants. B.Com on the other hand, is much more diversified and has a wider scope for specialisation for post-graduate study. Thus, it is advisable to first chalk out your skills, aptitude and area of interest before taking up any of the courses. Instead of looking at the money making aspect while choosing a course it is more feasible to choose a course that will give you long-term benefits rather than a short-term. I hope this information helpful for your bright future. Thanks and all the best.

Hi,
1. Quantitative Ability
This section will contain questions from the class 11th and class 12th Maths syllabus, while some questions will be up till 10th standard level. The best advice I can give is that start solving MCQ questions of the important topics (as per the syllabus) from Class XI and XII R. D. Sharma Book. Some of the questions are directly picked from it; and it worked out for me
2. Reasoning and Analytical Ability
This section will include reasoning and assertion based questions. It is also expected to contain a subsection of either a bar graph or chart and 8-10 questions based on analysis of that graph. Any data interpretation book will help you to practice questions which might appear in this section.
3. Verbal Ability
This section might make you think that it will be easy to attempt but it might prove to be the toughest for many people. For the vocabulary questions, research previous year papers and other exams (for example: CLAT and identify and learn important words from there, this is the best shot to score in vocabulary as mugging up hundreds of words at this point will not benefit you. Fill in the blanks and one word substitution are also expected to come and are considerably easy and do not require practice. Learn the ROOTS of the words, that's the best way to determine the meaning of hundreds of words by just identifying it's roots. Word Meanings can flip the entire game.
4. Business and General Awareness
This section will contain direct general knowledge based questions. Since this section does not require much thinking, do not give too much time attempting it. The main feature of General Awareness is that most of it contains static general knowledge based questions. Popular questions in this section are along the lines of product and their companies. Start memorizing what product is produced by which company (your shampoo bottle, your shoes, clothes etc. ). And taglines of products and companies. Memorize what banks are nationalized and important international days (Eg: Women day, Earth Day, AIDS Awareness Day)
Look up where popular companies headquarters are located, memorize important international and national prize winners of the current and previous years (eg: Nobel Prize, Bharat Ratna)
Some other helpful tips-Attempt the General Awareness and English section first as they require lesser thinking than the other two sections, this will give you more time to devote to the time consuming math problems.
