Am I eligible for MCA after completing my graduation in Zoology from any recognized college/university in West Bengal? I had Mathematics as my major subject in 2 and also secured above 70% marks. But in graduation, I did not opt Math as my additional subject. If MCA is not the good career option for a Zoology graduate, what are the diverse career options I can opt after my completion? Your answer will help me a lot. Thanks in advance.

Yes, you are eligible for MCA after completing graduation in Zoology. As mentioned by you, that you have studied 10+2 with Mathematics as a subject. Therefore, you are eligible to study MCA. Those candidates who have passed any degree with Mathematics at plus 2 levels are eligible for MCA admission. MCA course is available in various universities and colleges in India. Admission to the course is done on the basis of an entrance test. Duration of the course is three years. Scope for the MCA graduates in the MNCs is high.

Yes, as you had mathematics in your 12th standard, so you are eligible to apply for Master of Computer Application. Therefore, it is not mandatory to study mathematics in graduation as you have already studied it in 12th standard. Candidates who have completed their graduation in any stream are eligible for MCA, but with the conditions applied.
