Hey, no offence but I don't understand why anyone who is bad with numbers would sign a bond with a retail company. your job opportunities are severely limited if you are not a numbers person. eg. even for marketing positions you'll need to be good with stats to be able to crunch market research data.

you can run away from it now, but you wont be able to run away forever. it'll come back to haunt you when you start working and you realize your stats/acct knowledge is not strong enough compared to your colleagues. imo, better to challenge yourself and face your weaknesses in school (which is a more forgiving environment) than in the workplace.
