So I switch over to humanities in my second year and it was the best decision I ever made. I graduated with a first class with barely any studying. Even studying didnt feel like studying because I was so genuinely interested in what I was learning and I was so strong in it, probably due to my keen interest, that scoring As was really a breeze.

So there, find what it is you're really interested in and just do it man. Thing is, there is no 'easy' course in university. Difficulty level is dependent on your interest and passion in said subject. And if you find a course you are keen in, you will definitely do well. At least well enough to get a decent paying job.
Like threadstarter I am also looking for a public sector 8-5 stable job. Are you in an 8-5 job now? And if you don't mind sharing...which ministry/sb and in what function?
