Dear apples333:

I think that better you take one class in economics than to commit to degree in economics, so to get a feel for it. Notice that a big part of the education experience is who the teacher is. Who knows, maybe if you had an excellent math teacher early on, you would have enjoyed math.

Doing well in a particular subject is in school, any school, is a combination of your previous experience with teachers and the topic, who the current teacher is (how he/she teaches, clear or vague, interactive or not, etc.), and the value you see in the topic for your future. You mentioned you don’t want to stay in sales forever. I would focus on what career change you want to make and take the practical steps toward that change, starting with checking out a class in economics.
