Can I apply for LLB after graduating B.A through IGNOU correspondence study?
The eligibility criteria for various universities vary. Because IGNOU is a recognized university, you can certainly apply for admission to pursue LLB if you take the CET.

Candidates must simply register for IGNOU law programs by completing the application form and submitting their application fee, as well as the course fee.

How hard did you find it to complete BCA from IGNOU?
My brother's friend completed his BCA from IGNOU. Recounting his experience, he told me that it was very difficult to adapt to the self-learning environment. He failed consecutively in all three semesters in the beginning. He was on the verge of giving up.
He realized that the study material provided by IGNOU is actually designed for self-study. He made notes, researched and practised a lot and he was able to complete both BCA and MCA. He said that it was self-study that helped me achieve my goal.
If you want to get good marks in IGNOU you have to focus on your self-study sessions more than anything.
