If your major was marketing, then you say BA in Marketing.
If your major was business administration, with marketing as your focus, you say BA in Business Administration, with a focus in Marketing.
Of course, if you got a BS instead of a BA that is what you write.

Start with what it says on your diploma--but there's nothing to stop you from adding more information and clarification. If your diploma says "Bachelor of Science in Business Administration" you can always put on your resume that you had an emphasis or a concentration in marketing. That way you'll be consistent if they check to verify your degree with the school (some employers really do that!), but you'll be telling them the additional, specific information they may be looking for.

Jellybeanchick has the right answer. Employers just want to know what your degree is and when you got it. The rest of your resume should be used for giving bullet points of your experience, which is where it really matters.

i think of it you ought to checklist any college degree which you earned on your resume. even notwithstanding if that's a double important of appropriate fields. case in point that's suitable for a Finance/Accounting important to checklist the two levels even even with the undeniable fact that the countless classwork is a similar. that's an accomplishment to earn each degree and it is not overkill to show those important achievements.
