Hi,

If you completed your 12th with PCB but didn’t have Mathematics , it might be challenging to pursue a B.Tech in Computer Science since most colleges require Maths in 12th.

However, you can explore options like:

  1. Bridging Courses : Some universities offer courses to help you meet the eligibility for Computer Science.

  2. Private Universities : Some institutions may have flexible admission criteria, allowing you to join B.Tech CSE without Maths in 12th.

  3. B.Sc. in Computer Science : If B.Tech isn't an option, you can pursue a B.Sc. in Computer Science and then go for a Master’s in Computer Applications (MCA) .

Check with specific universities for their eligibility requirements.

Hope this helps!
