Just how difficult is a chemistry major?

<p>I know every university/college is different regarding the curriculum to earn your BS or BA in chemistry but I just want to know generally how difficult it is.
For starters, I was absolutely terrible in Chemistry during high school and had no idea what to do during labs, but now that I'm a freshman in college, the idea of chemistry really fascinates me. Even though Chemistry is difficult, I plan to put in extra hours for this course to do well and earn my BA in chemistry. </p>

<p>But the question is how difficult is it? If I'm bad at math will I be doomed in later chemistry topics such as physical chemistry? How vigorous is the workload for the course and are the pay offs nice? Will I be able to get a nice job typically in the New York area. I really want to major in chemistry but the workload and the amount of math just terrifies me.</p>
