accounting.

job market is really strong, and finding a job is VERY easy if you go to a good accounting school. accounting is about as stable as it gets. i have 2 internships so far, one with a big 4 paid $50,000/yr in texas and the other (not big 4) paid $62,400/yr in new york. starting salary is the same.

accounting was the only business class i liked. if you're an analytical thinker, you should enjoy it. there are 2 main types of accounting that most start in: tax accounting or auditing. tax accounting is very technical, auditing is based more into soft skills, so most people find a good fit in one or the other.

biggest point: practicality. few majors are more practical than accounting. plus, experience with the big 4 will provide you with a crapload of oppourtunity in the future.
