It's not that one is better than the other, it's just that they are slightly different in approach to a specific field. The differences in brief are indicated below.
The Bachelor of Arts degree (BA) has a broader scope, with a strong emphasis on the humanities, theoretical and general knowledge in a recognized discipline, interdisciplinary field, or of a professional study.
The Bachelor of Science degree (BS) is more of a focused approach with a science base to include a balance of liberal arts, technological knowledge, math and computer oriented skills, and practical skills needed for a particular discipline within the field.
A BA degree is a four-year course focusing on disciplines which include liberal arts, languages, philosophy, social science, humanities, mathematics, literature, music/theater/performing arts, etc. A degree in Arts is not confined to non-technical fields only, even a science-related field can be pursued through a Bachelor in Arts. A BS, on the other hand, can be obtained only for a technical, science-related field. In general, a BS is a lot more intense than a BA. Reason - the number of courses required for a BS degree are usually more than those required for BA. Which is better for you depends on what you want to major in. Neither of them is better than the other, but from an employment perspective, fortunately or unfortunately, a science graduate happens to have more options than an arts graduate. That said, wherever you get your degree from, ensure that the school is accredited and go through student reviews which give you a clearer picture of a college's worth. So think carefully what subjects you like most, and make your pick between a BS and a BA!
