Choosing the best degree to obtain during college is not as easy as it seems. Some people know what they want and some don't. Some people begin pursuing one degree field only to change their mind halfway through and switch majors. Some people want to get a degree as easily as possible which leads them to the question at hand, "What is the easiest degree to get?"
Simply signing up for the easiest degree is not always the best option though. What if the degree you picked because it was meant to be easy happens to be in something that you completely and utterly hate? Yes, you will still have a degree to show but if you have to work in that particular profession all your life then you could turn out to be completely miserable. No one wants to do something they hate day in day out.
What if by getting an easy degree means that you will not be making as much money as you wished or hoped for. You are paying all that money to go to school, graduate, and then work in something that pays poorly. While this would be okay if it is something that you loved and for that reason it would be worthwhile. But if you are not passionate about the job and you do not make enough money then the time and money you spent on the degree would all be wasted.
Also, people's ideas of what would be an easy degree would be different than someone else's. Each individual has their own strengths and weaknesses and some are better at certain things than others. Some people are great at writing, some are great at math, some great at science, and others may be great with technology. So you can not always rely on what others say is easy. You need to do some research on your own first.
An easy degree would most likely be in something that you love. If it interests you then it will make it much easier to obtain the degree. Learning about interesting stuff makes people more motivated to continue learning. People usually find it easier to focus on things they have an interest in. So when researching what field of degree you want to major in, start by researching different subjects that interest you and then narrow it down to what seems to be within your capability.
After you start your chosen degree you may decide to go another path. It is common to start a bachelors degree in a certain field and then realizing that maybe it is just not for you. That is okay. You can simply switch your major to something else that interests you and then continue on. It is not uncommon to switch your major a couple of times before you figure out what is going to suit you best.
