Explanation

When you pick the person/thing that you want (from a range of possibilities), you make a choice: 'Her parents are not happy about her choice of husband.' 'Oxford was my first choice, but I didn't get the grades.'

When you make a judgement about something, especially after thinking carefully about it, you make a decision: 'Although the job offer is attractive, I'd like more time to make a decision.' 'My decision to leave school at 15 was the biggest mistake I ever made.'
