Well, I think you should not go for very tough courses like CA and B.Sc. And better to go for BCA which is very much concentrated towards software and their applications.

Better to do BCA, and then MCA, if you want to do your Masters. But, if you want to quickly start earning, then go for CA, but remember that it is really tough to study.

BCA is a course specially designed to excel in computers. While in B.Sc CA you have to study computer application as one subject preferably in place of chemistry. If you want to learn other science subjects also then go for B.Sc CA otherwise BCA is a better option.

It depends on your eligibility. BCA is the best option if you are from commerce stream. After completing BCA, you should opt for Master's degree.
