Default Sociology VS Social Work

Hello,
I need suggestions about choosing my optional.
Is sociology is best choice or social work for the person who has no background of both subjects.

Kindly share your feedback or follow up? Which one is better to opt for those students which have no background?

Sorry I couldn't post link of the thread here, because I don't know how to post the links,so I am quoting the words written by someone in the thread named "CSS Sociology vs Social work" in the PMS Section of the forum.

"Sociology of CSS is quite different from sociology of PMS. In PMS, Sociology is primarily based on
Sociological Theories, even the general topics like religion, gender, mass media etc are to be answered with reference to theories. In CSS, sociological theories are not given that much importance.
Moreover, the paper 2 of PMS is based on research methodologies.
So, if you want to opt for Sociology in PMS, you would have to work really hard to expand your basic sociological knowledge to theoretical and research perspectives.
Social Work is comparatively easy to prepare.
As far as scoring trends are concerned, both are scoring if you prepare them really well. If you don't have much time for preparation you should go for social work as you may be able to score well (around 60) with minimal preparation (as you have background of sociology). But if you want to opt sociology, you will have to work really hard but you will surely get very good marks but with minimal prep Sociology would prove fatal for you.
I hope that explains your query."

Thanks. I decided to go with Sociology. Although I will have to work hard to grasp the concepts but I am willing to learn new things. Being from an engineering background, all other subjects seem equally strange to me in this group.
