Academic Validation or Love of Subject?

I really need help as I need to make a decision about this ASAP..

I’m applying to do an Access to HE course but I have two options which are humanities or science.

I want to do science because I want to prove that I can thrive in a STEM subject at uni and I want the hard work and to have a degree that will give me more opportunities when I graduate..

But, humanities is what I really enjoy and I’d love to do a history degree or something along those lines. That’s my passion in life and it would be a degree that would really excite me but then I’d probably end up working in an office like I am now doing something completely unrelated to my degree.

Any advice on making this decision would be greatly appreciated!
