<p>Impossible questions to answer. How hard a major is will vary by schools, by courses selected, by profs, and by what your natural talents are. If you’re numerically challenged, you’ll find finance or accounting hard; if numbers come easy to you, you’ll find them much easier. Most successful marketers are creative people who can also deal with analytical concepts. </p>
<p>As far as who makes the most money, what you do with a degree is far more important than what that degree is in (to forestall predictable and fruitless outrage, I’m talking about differences within broad categories, not between them). </p>
<p>And I’d seriously consider not majoring in business at all. Successful businesspeople are those who can think through and solve hard problems and who can deal with shades of gray and ambiguity. Most undergrad business courses teach basic skills and don’t really develop those more intellectually intense abilities.</p>
<p>I have two business degrees and 35 years of business experience. Were I starting over, I’d get my undergrad degree in a discipline that develops the mind, like philosophy, literature, a social or physical science, or math. I’d take a couple of electives, in accounting, basic marketing, and business law. Then after a couple of years working in business, I’d enroll part time in an executive MBA program, ideally on my employer’s dime. </p>
