How do I choose my major? I just finished my 2nd year of college and I'm still unsure about what I want to do.

Do media studies. There, I decided for you.

Choose something that will get you a job and that you can stand doing. Seriously study something that gives you marketable skills even if it's not your passion. Fuck everything about leaving school with a worthless degree

Anything Engineering will be good.

This is the correct answer. And if you can't do something that will get you a job, at least major in a hard science, statistics, or math. It'll teach your brain to think and actually understand reality.

If you can't do that, then be sure you have the time and money to study a trade after you graduate: plumbers and electricians are well paid.

Do what my sister did for me: Look online for a list of well paying jobs that are in high demand. Look through some lists and see what you like or think you would like. I literally picked my major like that almost blindly because it sounded kind of like something I'd like. Worked out pretty well so far.

Why would you do that when you can just go Engineering. It teach you how to think + get you high paying job.

This.

I was in your shoes 4 years ago OP. I never did manage to make up my mind and just ended up getting two degrees in worthless shit that I had accumulated just by taking random classes for fun. I ended up with a history degree and a french language degree because those happened to be the "electives" I enjoyed the most.

Now I have no future and wish I had never quit engineering in the first place. Hell, even avoiding college entirely would have left me in a better position than two worthless degrees and 25k debt.
