Major switch?

Currently a sophomore majoring in Finance and Psychology with ambitions of breaking into investment banking. Since being on this forum, I’ve seen a lot of people talk about how unhappy they are and the endless cycle of chase that never seems to end. I’ve always flirted with the idea of switching my major to something more STEM related like mechanical/aerospace engineering, Math, or physics out of pure interest. Thoughts on this?
