I took an intro to marketing class and really liked it. I've taken a few mass comm classes and have not been completely impressed.
The marketing path will require that I take some business core classes which means a little more time versus mass comm. Plus, I'm not the best at math. But I seem to like marketing.
The mass comm path requires i take a couple courses that are more creative like layout and design and possibly video production etc.
I'd appreciate some advice on any experiences some of you have had throughout your lives or what choice might have better prospects. ALL advice is welcome. Thank you.

Marketing is probably a little better for first getting a job. My feeling is it won't really make that much of a difference in terms of career. Both of those degrees are going to require you to sell yourself in order to get a job and succeed, much more than a degree in say, Aerospace Engineering.
Most Marketing Analyst positions just require a BA and that's it. It could be in Medieval History.
Just go with the one you're more interested in.
