How many commerce people do you think will actually opt for CS? All the people I know going for CS are science students.

Maths M1 (don't know about M2) and Physics have a lot in common so it gets easier. You should check the syllabus and past papers to get an idea. Also, have a look at the notes in revision section.

I didn't know about IBA and am surprised at their policy. The other popular universities I know about like FAST, NUST, GIKI and UET all require Maths and Physics + Chemistry or Computer Studies!
