I am at a crossroads here where I don’t know whether to finish my bachelors in Business Administration degree (I have to take some classes over again including operations management) basically a year and a half left. Or to pursue another field. I found upper level business classes to be a total bore…..I HATE accounting. Right now I am taking one chemistry class as I am thinking about getting a pharmacy tech certificate or an associates in nursing.

Well, see if you can launder your previous credits into any sort of a four-year degree, including some sort of general studies thing. Deans are good at working that sort of thing out for students. You can go for a nursing or pharmacy tech certification later on or in conjunction with the 4-year degree, but the baccalaureate is worth getting–many companies want you to have one, and you’ve gotten most of one already. States now generally demand that nurses have a four-year degree, too.
Stay in school as best you can. Take classes that interest you, and work at them hard. The interest will come if you expend some effort at it. Business courses can indeed be tedious, and it may be that you’re somewhat bored. Take science classes if you can get graduation credit for them.

If you have no passion whatever for a degree you’re not going to do well at it. If Business is a “bore,” find something else.
I hated Accounting, also. Worst business courses ever.
You should see if you can take the business classes you’ve taken and put them towards a Business minor to minimize waste.
If you enjoy chemistry, you can put that to good use. Pharmacy and Nursing are high demand fields. Depending on where you live, they should be more useful than a business degree, anyway.
One last piece of advice: business is a very elitest field. Corporations only hire top students. If you have passion for business, you won’t be a top student.
