If you don't even know the difference then no, you don't have the brain for that sorta stuff.
And if you can't even bother googling then you're going to flunk out anyway...

Advertising deals with getting a companies message across to their target audience on a certain product or service.
Marketing's job is to identify the needs and wants of consumers and satisfy them.
I'd take marketing if I were, since it's a little more broad and you'll take advertising as part of marketing anyways. Be prepared to do lots of presentations though.
