Switch from Computer Science to Management Information Systems or Information Technology? gaming computer builder

So I'm a junior transfer student at University of Florida currently in my under grad pursuing a degree in Computer Science in the college of engineering. I've completed all of my Math courses required for CS. I just have two years of core courses and a few electives. Ever since I started college was aim was to become a Systems Analyst (Computer Systems Analyst/Business Systems Analyst). Navie as I was, I decided to go with Computer Science. I powered through all my math classes, I took entry level Java & C++. I didn't struggle with them, intact I was ahead of most people. I don't hate program nor do I enjoy it. To put it on a scale, I dislike it but not much. However, I like the idea of relaying information to developers, creating queries, databases, etc. I like the people interaction. I don't see my self infront of a cheap monitor everyday with a disorganized office. I thought the typical Software Developer's office would be better since it'll be the place you'll spend majority of your career there. Realistically I'm not expecting to get into a great company at the starting of my career. So here are the options I formulated. Switch to MIS and minor in CS. Thing is I'm not confident about landing a job as an Analyst with a MIS degree. I'm afraid the CS candidates will get priority over me. Although I feel like MIS would better prepare me for the work field that I'm interested in. Major in IT and minor in CS. I'm not a fan of this one. It's an option but I'm neutral about it. The last option is to major in CS and minor in Business Administration. I'm second in favor of this, however like I said, I wouldn't feel prepared for the work force. I'm afraid I'll have to learn everything while I'm on the job, I get that's the point of internships, but with this option, I would have no foundation except the technical ones from CS. Las my thing to consider as a deciding factor, the core hard classes like operating systems, data structures, etc are shying me away from CS. I heard they're extremely hard. I'm not a hard worker, I just happened to be good at math. I think my knack for these courses won't last long. I rather the MIS route with a minor in Computer Science or Business Administration. As mentioned before, I'm just afraid I'll be unemployed or under employed. I don't mind taking a semester or two to get the 18 credits out of the way for MIS. I'm 19 years old, to me it's not a major set back. What are your thoughts?
