Better is BA as the question must be based on some doubt or apprehensions or an alignment in the mind. BA can give you more options to have a career in non-science/Engineering domains.

Hi, If you find science difficult then you can move in arts provided if you want to pursue career in teaching or counselling, law, etc. but once you shift in arts then you cannot take science again. Both are equally good for career. It depends on what you want to do in future.

In my knowledge, in comparison to B.A. B.Sc. Holds more scope and value. And marks are just number they cannot decide your future and 60% is not that bad.
