Bachelor's Engineering Physics
I only loved Lagrangian Mechanics and General Relativity. Those are 2 very small subjects. And for my degree, I "got through". You don't have to love something to be able to do it, but a good payoff can be motivating enough to help you slog through the bad parts if you can keep your end goal in mind.
I sure as hell didn't get all A's... DifEq and GR were about the only A's I got in undergrad. But I'm doing "math" now in grad school too, degree is a math masters but doing stuff physicists who like math physics would do -- underwater acoustics.
Again, good study habits are make or break.
