Go for geology if you have a scientific mind. Geology will require knowledge of physics, chemistry and biology. If I had discovered geology in stead of physiology in college, I probably would have become a geologist.

Can you not do both??
I would sort of say geography, because you still deal with rocks in physical geography

from my point of view, geology is by far more challenging, but it is you who has to decide. make a list with pros and cons for both of them....and see which is longer at the pros section

Major in geology. It pays more. Geology field camp is the most fun you can have without breaking the law. While majoring in Geology, take a GIS class in the Geography Department. It will be useful.
