Preface

It gives us a great pleasure to introduce the Revised Edition of JECA

Book for MCA Entrance following the New Revised Syllabus (on
Computer Applications) as given by West Bengal Joint Entrance Board.
The book consists of 10 chapters related to Computer Applications
only. In each chapter, dedicated discussions on the contents of the
chapter are presented with supporting examples and exercises (all in
MCQ mode). It is in consistent with the Pattern of Question Paper of
JECA. At the end of the Book two Practice Sets (with answers and
hints) are presented with 100 MCQ each. In total 1000 MCQ are given

in the book with answers and discussions. It will help the students to
get through their JECA and other similar competitive examinations
and at the same time will arouse greater intellectual curiosity in them.
 Any healthy comments and suggestions for the improvement of this
book from the students as well as from teachers will be heartily and
gratefully acknowledged.

Full Marks of each Full Marks of each Number of Marks
Q=1 Q =2 Questions
(Neg Mark = -1/4) (No Neg Marks )

No. of Q No. of Q

80 20 100 120

Only one option is One or more

correct. options is/are
Correct option will correct.
yield 1 (one) mark. Marking all
correct options
only will yield 2
(two) marks

All questions will be of Multiple-Choice Questions (MCQ) type, with

four answer options. Time for the paper is 2 hours. The questions will
be in English language only.
