1) If I wish to do B.Sc IT through Commerce stream after 12th, will I need to give an entrance exam to get into a good college?

2) If I take Jai Hind College for 11th Commerce then will I get in-house quota if I go for B.Sc IT?

3) And, please tell me the difference between B.Sc IT and BCA.

1) As per defined eligiblity criteria for B.Sc. IT, candidate must have completed 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics having at least 50% marks.
But there are many institutes which admit commerce students also to fill their seats if they have secured at least 50% marks.
So, if you wish to take admission in B.Sc. IT, then you can get it although you are from Commerce stream.

Entrance exam will be conducted by the insitute itself on the basis of which admission will be granted.

2) Yes, you will get in-house quota in Jai Hind College. Note that Jai Hind College Mumbai offers in house quota only for BA, B.Sc. and B.Com

3) BCA stands for Bachelor of Computer Application while B.Sc. IT stands for Bachelor of Science in Information Technology.
Both the courses have nearly same subjects but may somewhat vary from university to university.
BCA emphasize more on practical knowledge related to web designing, software making, development. However, but in B.Sc. IT, there will be more focus on theory than practicals.
