<human>: Condense the text into a few key points

I finally went back to school in my late twenties after working endless dead end jobs.  

I was considering doing a science-related major but I am shying away from engineering because the prerequisites alone would take me years, I'm only no doing calc two and haven't done any physics, chem, etc.  

so, I started thinking about taking a shorter route and going for computer science, the only problem is I'm not one of those computer geek people, my computer knowledge is probably on a fifth grade level 
so I'm worried that my skills will be lacking but I'm drawn to the combination of art and math that programming seems to have.  

I went from remedial math to calculus so there's no reason to think I can't learn programming but then again, I could be making a huge mistake going into a field I know little to nothing about.
<bot>: I'm close to thirty, back in school, considering computer science but absolutely clueless about the field, curious to hear if others regret getting similar degrees
