Hey to be fair this is a valid question that actually can be answered simply.

An MRes is a maters level research qualification which you obtain by undertaking a significant piece of research at a university. There are no specific classes or exams.

An MSc or other taught programme is more didactic and requires you to attend classes and sit exams. There may be a research component, but this is not the specific focus of the degree.

Not sure which is best for your future career. You should ask the universities that you want to attend about where people go onto.

Not quite true BHC. Many MRes's have taught classes, Lancaster's for example. The major difference (?) is the expectations on the student regarding self-sufficiency.
