I'm going back and forth between majoring in accounting and marketing. I'm in a dilemma.

I am a business grad majoring in marketing. It is no doubt a very interesting subject but it is also something you can learn along your career life. Creativity, observation and fast learning are the keys to marketeers. I would suggest you to do accounting. It open more doors for you than you could imagine. Believe me. My peers who did Business Accounting went far ahead of me and i am stuck with something i don't like. A college degree gives you an edge to start your marketing career but it requires your constant persistant to strive for better results that counts. A Mass Communication major could be a better choice than marketing alone.
- Good Luck -

Marketing is an area that is likely to continue to have high demand from employers because it requires knowledge of local markets.
Marketing is also a vast field, so there are many areas to consider. You mentioned also considering accounting, so perhaps you are analytical and enjoy working with numbers. If this is the case, there are many very satisfying careers in marketing that require extensive mathematical and analytical backgrounds. For example, perhaps someday you wanted to program a computer that could predict how a group of people would respond to an advertising campaign (this is called modeling).
Though I majored in Social Science, I've found my home in software product marketing, which requires a technical, creative, and analytical mind.
Most important of all, try to find something you truly love doing and all other things will likely flow from that discovery and experience.
Enjoy....most learning is wonderful.

you'll comprehend the guy. He has an superb volume of capability. it sort of feels like the powers that be attempt to easily ware the folk down. Make us sense that we are going to no longer combat the device. The device is in basic terms too huge and it is hopeless to stand up to. the shown fact that he's up there hammering away on them says plenty with regard to the guy. in case you compromise with him or no longer.

marketing sound like more fun than being a bean counter
