Hey /adv/, I'm a 24yo guy, getting ready to restart college in earnest.
I obsess over what major will be best for me both financially and emotionally and have literally spent 2-4 hours per day researching careers online for the last 7 years. I've memorized the BLS stats on dozens of careers I research and second guess until I give up and slip into despair until something else grabs by interest.
Has anybody else struggled like this? How can I break this cycle? I'm a relatively smart, passionate individual and I want to do some good in the world. How do I make up my mind?
How do u think about electric engineering? Im 18 and I start in this fall

Unless you go to MIT or an equally prestigious university you will probably have a hard time finding a job.
computer science is your best bet OP. I'm being dead serious.
Just start off taking a range of classes and see what you end up liking the most. You'll know whether or not STEM is for you pretty early on, which will help narrow things down a lot.

This is bullshit, the fundamentals of engineering prepare you for a huge range of careers inside and outside of the sciences.
