Questions

Still deciding?

Yes — plenty of students do, usually one after the other rather than at the same time. Finish the first with a working portfolio before starting the second; running both together tends to leave you half-finished on each.

Both start at Module 01 with nothing assumed, so "easier" really comes down to which kind of work you'd rather be doing daily — see the tools and topics compared above before deciding on difficulty alone.

You don't have to decide from this page alone. A free counselling session maps your own background to one of these two directly, in about 20 minutes.
