I want to know the difference between BA(hons) PSYCHOLOGY and BA(hons) APPLIED PSYCHOLOGY

Psychology is a vast subject, with lots of branches and specialities.

General Psychology is where you learn about the facets of the mind, various theories which have shaped the course of psychology, personality, memory, learning, cognition.. so on and so forth.

Applied Psychology is a specialised stream of the field where one learns to put the theories and principles of psychology to practical and tangible use in the everyday world.

Some of the common branches where psychologists heavily emphasize applied psychology are Counselling, Child Psychology, Clinical Psychology, Sports Psychology, Industrial and Organisational Psychology etc.
