I would also suggest, you should appear for individual state examinations (OJEE in Odisha, EAMCET in Andhra Pradesh/Telangana, COMEDK in Karnataka, etc.). These exams also guarantee you good colleges and serve as

Hello Yash,
While computer science and engineering equally cover both hardware and software aspects. Information technology engineering and software engineering has a lesser focus on the hardware aspect. However, this difference hardly matters as universities frequently keep updating the syllabus for each branch.
Unless and until, you get a job in a hardware manufacturing company like Intel, Logitech, etc. This little difference in the syllabus hardly matters.

Hello Rajni,
If you want to make your career only in IT field with some application development then select BCA. If you want some extra knowledge then go with B.Sc in computer science because it is a very big field. Computer science field is a combination of IT, mathematics (computing), statistics, hardware, graphics, electronics and many more fields.
BCA restricts you only to application development, database and web development, while with B.Sc, you can do some extra ordinary things.

Hello Suraj,
If you are planning 7 more year of education after 10th class, standard +2 followed by graduation and then post graduation is ideal path. If you are planning only 3 more years of education then 3 year diploma course is ideal. You can get into job after diploma and enhance your educational skills while on job.

Hello Vishal,
I see that many students get confused with the different names provided by the different institutes for the same course and you are no exception. Computer Engineering and Computer Science Engineering refer to the same course. No course can guarantee you good placements. While it's the college's responsibility to bring in as many relevant companies as possible, getting placed in the company depends on the skills and knowledge of the student. I hope this answers your question. If you have any further questions, kindly revert.

Hello,
Most of the good courses such as PG Diploma in Mobile Computing by CDAC are for engineers or BCA/MCA/ B.Sc CS students. However, some computer training institutes also offer Mobile Computing and Apps Development courses where eligibility criterion are not very stringiest. You may look for such Institutes in your neighbourhood. There is small caution to you. Without formal Computer Science background you might face challenges in find an appropriate job. I will advice you to go for MCA and specialise in Mobile Computing.
