Good luck with your studies. I'd certainly like to get another degree, myself. First time around, it was computer science.
I only took one astronomy class and that was my first semester. It was Tuesday night sandwiched between Monday and Wednesday calculus classes. I'm pretty good at math, but calculus "philosophy" and memorizing oblique proofs had me beating my head against the wall. I spent my entire astronomy class doing calculus homework. But every time the professor asked me a question (at first annoyed because I was doing something else in his class), I was able to answer every one of his questions without blinking.
I had been studying astronomy for 30 years, so that beginning class was easy (and fun). Later, the professor and I became friends. Then he found out that I was also a space artist and his jaw dropped. He and his significant other had one of my paintings, purchased two decades earlier.
