I think I.T may be a more beneficial degree. The thing is, if you want to do marketing it would be better to gain actual work experience. The reason why I think an I.T degree is better is because it has transferable analytical skills, whereas the information you gain from a marketing degree will be more soft-skill based which you would gain from an actual workplace environment anyway.

I need some help I like both but not sure which one to do. I don't think Marketing pays as much as jobs in I.t. but not sure
Well, if the main reason for choosing IT is a salary, but marketing is more interesting for you, then you can study marketing and work in an IT company. My friend is doing what he loves (marketing) and at the same time the salary is at the IT level

Choosing between marketing and IT depends on your interests and career goals. While IT jobs often offer higher starting salaries, marketing can also be lucrative, especially in digital marketing roles. Consider what you enjoy more and where you see yourself in the long term. Both fields have good opportunities for growth.
Best of luck with your decision!
