What is the extent of math I would need to know for a technology related job?

I know that it probably would vary significantly depending on which job it is exactly, but I just would like an idea of the extent of math I would need to be doing on a regular basis while working in the future. I am in 10th grade and wondering what classes would be good for me to take to prepare myself for a career reated to technology, I have already signed up for multiple tech related classes, but I would like to know what math classes would be a good idea for me to get into because I heard that math is used a bit in these types of jobs.

Is high school honors worth it?

I'm wondering if high school honors matter to empoylers. I already got accepted ED into Northeastern University, so I assume it won't matter to colleges if I didn't get one. I'm planning to drop a math class as I hate math and it just stresses me out. Will Northeastern rescind my application if I drop that math class? I failed the first term of that math class, so I retook it, but will they recind me if I don't finish the second term. Will graduating from high school matter to empoylers at all?

I'm stuck in my math major, what should I do?

First I'll share some quick background. Currently, I'm a third-year undergrad at University and I initially declared a math major. I enjoyed calculus and all the computational math classes I have taken so far. Still, now I'm taking the more theoretical abstract math and I find that not only do I not enjoy it but I really struggle through it. At first, I was considering an actuarial career, I even interviewed with some companies and was working on passing my first exam, but I quickly became burned out and found that I wasn't enjoying that either. I love accounting as I'm taking Financial Accounting this semester which would have been a part of my Actuarial Science minor. What's unfortunate however is I really can't switch out of my math major, my uni's policies make it impossible. I already have 96 credits because I obtained a bunch in high school (which are irrelevant to my degree) and this makes the idea of transferring kinda hard as well. I would still need to take 8 more math classes to finish my degree, and I'm scared of that idea. I'm assuming becoming an accountant is still possible if I do a minor and then do a Macc afterward, so is this likely the best thing possible for me at the moment? Are there other jobs for math majors that could potentially suit me? I'm okay with coding, it's not my favorite but I like SQL. Any advice from someone who had to stick out a degree they didn't really love? Thank you in advance.

How do you choose a college minor?

I know that I'm interested in something STEM, probably mathematics, but I'm not sure what career I'd go into after. I have no interest in teaching, so definitely don't want to become a professor or teacher. So I'm wondering what minor would work well with mathematics to have more opportunities after college.
