Basically, I'm in my second quarter of my second year, and I'm a Computer Science major. When I took my starter classes I didnt really like programming, and now that I'm delving into my higher level classes, I realize that I REALLY hate programming, and I would never want to do it (or anything related to programming) as a real job.

As far as I know, its not too late for me to change majors (although it may be hard). Im thinking of changing to Business Administration, due to the fact that I prefer to work with people, and it seems as though it would give me plenty of options when choosing a job in the work force.

Is my reasoning valid? Im actually in a programming class now, and cant stand the material, or doing the programming....

TIA

Since you really hate programming, you would be foolish to stay in that major. My nephew was in computer science because he had heard it was a "hot" field, which I do believe is true. However, he, too, hated it and knew he didn't want to do it for the rest of his life, so he changed. Don't just think about how you hate it now--imagine what the rest of your life would be like if you spent 40 hours or so a week for the next 40 years or so doing something you hate. It is hard enough to go to work without having to do something you really don't like. Even if changing your major requires you to spend an extra quarter or so in college, it would be time well spent if you end up in a major that you enjoy. One thing I would suggest in making the change is to look at possible majors that would be compatible with computer science as your minor. Business administration is a broad enough field that should have a decent amount of demand for many years to come. Talk to your counselor. It might be possible to take both aptitude and interest tests that will help you decide.

be particular you inspect all of your pc options mutually with it, pc technology, and pc programming. Your math skills look like it would want to grant you with an income in programming and technology. it really is more effective networking and palms and using pcs to regulate. even as programming and technology is more effective manipulating withing the computer.
