[QUOTE="Sajedene"][QUOTE="cametall"][QUOTE="Sajedene"][QUOTE="cametall"] You're very vague, and I'd argue that it depends on you as a person on which subject is harder.
Someone who is phenomenal at chemistry can easily fail theoretical economics. A person good at communication (verbal and written) may fall flat on their face at accounting.
There is no such thing as a "business major." You have to select a path in the field to take. Same could be said about each of the subjects above. Accounting and Economics are tough business majors, while Marketing and Management are easier. Hell, you could specialize in 4 different types of accounting (financial, taxation, cost, auditing).
What most high schoolers (and college freshmen) fail to realize is you don't just learn "business." You have to pick an aspect to study.

You speak the truth! And even the easy ones like Marketing get really indepth and some people dont get it (trust me-- I was a marketing major and some people just couldnt get it -- its not just about commercials and advertising and stuff)
I almost screwed up my Marketing class (I'm an accounting major). It's almost like some type of business psychology at times.
Yeah its like analyzing stuff - worst stuff was the strategy games we had to do with these programs. Deciding production numbers and amount of R&D and advertising costs within a budget all the while hoping people will "buy" our stuff.
And I was an accounting major before switching to marketing -- I hate Math but want to do business and figured the one with the least math involved was that. Lol. So I feel for ya but its so worth it since Accounting is high paying.
I had to do that too, it was called "New Shoes." Had to sell shoes, do R&D, advertising, all that good stuff.Luckily we had a marketing major in the group. Everyone else was finance and accounting.
We had to do that simulation in intro to marketing too, I thought it was a waste of time.
