In my first two years in engineering school, I was required to take four semesters of calculus, three semesters of physics, and two semesters of computer science. Competing for a scarcely rationed* 'A' or 'B+' against some pretty intelligent classmates was not easy. And then there was that semester of chemistry, where the engineers competed against the pre-meds, some of whom were also not dumb.
I have no sympathy for those who choose an easy path, and have nothing employers want on the other side.
*Course means were normalized to a 2.5 grade point, so about 10% of the class got A's and the same amount received D's; for each B+, a C- was handed out
