MBA degree in comparison to MSc degree is a generalist degree. That means, curriculum of a typical MBA programme covers all the fields related to business such as Finance, Sales, Marketing, HR, General Management, etc. Whereas MSc degree is a more specialist degree, it focuses on a specialised field of study. As an example. Take a course named International Marketing Management MSc. The International Marketing Management MSc develops your general management skills and explores the many complex issues associated with marketing in MSc in an international context. But it would not include any other business related subjects such as finance or HR. The curriculum would purely deal with specifics of International Marketing and Management. The MBA course on the other hand ncludes all the general subjects related to management and business. So, if you are seeking basic knowledge in all the subjects related to business, an MBA degree is more suited to you. Whereas, if you are seeking specific and in-depth knowledge of a particular subject related to business, an MSc degree suits you better.
Similar to this there is wide difference in AGE group, Method of teaching and also the financial aspects involved which differs between a MSc and a MBA

Roshani at your tender age and early study period, your approach is wrong. If you are an average plus student then concentrate on all 5 subjects and always learn them. It will automatically fetch good marks. Secondly, as a PCM student, you will always have five theory papers in your college as well, whether it is B.Tech, B.Sc. or BCA. Therefore, in next five years you will always study 5 papers so do not start developing short cuts. I will suggest you to have IT or Computers as optional. I do not know whether it will be more scoring but definitely this subject is required for whatever degree you opt for in your college.
