Hi Ritika
Selection between B.A. Psychology and BBA Event Management will depend on
1. Your long term goals
2. Your orientation.
B.A. Psychology can be good for you if you wish to become an academician, researcher or even you can be a practicing Psychiatrist. You can involve yourself in counselling jobs also.
BBA Event Management requires creativity, lot of networking, hard toil and labour at odd places and odd temperature. But yes you will get a quick access to corporate life.
Hope it serves your purpose.
Good Luck!
